Explore the wilds of Sherwood Forest in this rollicking retelling of the classic Robin Hood tale.
When the Sheriff of Nottingham begins demolishing woodland homes as part of a grand castle-expansion scheme, the starry-eyed Robin sees his chance to fight back and fulfill his dream of becoming a hero.
Of course, he'll need a little help from his friends.
Join Maid Marion, Little John, and a mischievious deer with excellent taste in clothes on a medieval mission to save the forest.
Featuring original music by composer Paul Watkins and beautifully-crafted costumes and scenery.
