Robin and his band of Merry Men with the aid of Holly Jockey-Sticks, the woodland Fairy; Marion's nanny, Nellie Scarlet; and her son Wally set out to thwart the evil Sheriff once and for all to ensure good, will always win over evil. Robin Hood is a traditional family pantomime with all the ingredients of a fun-filled show. Running time aprox 130 minutes. - There are twelve main cast members (9M - 3F - some male parts can be played by females) plus a Pantomime Horse, and a chorus of Townsfolk, Knights, Children, Fairies and Pixies The show had a gag within gag complexity, and an amazing frequency of jokes. - All in all, a lovely event. ~ Fourville Players A traditional script that made me giggle from the very start. - A family panto with slapstic, comedy, and corny jokes for everyone. ~ Gloucester Echo Described as a traditional pantomime, Bob Heather and Cheryl Barrett have certainly achieved that. - The running gags (The Archers theme music, audience participation, etc.) are just some of the elements that go to make this a successful show. ~ Southern Daily Echo. A first class traditional panto with some very witty dialogue. Just the right length of time for a pantomime - always leave your audience wanting more. ~ NODA. The humour appeals to the younger audience, who get a chance to yell and sing, and also to the older members as they appreciate the numerous double entendres. ~ Romsey Advertiser. I enjoyed this script right from the first page. It is one of those that jumps up and makes me want to direct it myself. - I would recommend this script to any theatre company to produce. ~ Amateur Stage
