A rousing, bawdy Southern fairy tale set in eighteenth century Mississippi, THE ROBBER BRIDEGROOM
is the story of the courting of Rosamund, the only daughter of the
richest planter in the country, by Jamie Lockhart, a rascally robber of
the woods. The proceedings go awry, thanks to an unconventional case of
double-mistaken identity. Throw in an evil stepmother intent on
Rosamund's demise, her pea-brained henchman and a hostile talking
head-in-a-trunk, and you have the recipe for a rollicking country romp.
Told in "story theatre" fashion with nine principal actors on a unit set, THE ROBBER BRIDEGROOM is extremely flexible in its staging and production possibilities. The hysterical book by Alfred Uhry, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of DRIVING MISS DAISY, gives each actor his or her moment to shine. Composer Robert Waldman
has created a score to be played by a small onstage band. It's one of
the only genuine bluegrass scores ever heard in a Broadway musical,
giving this unusual tale of the Natchez Trace a distinctive sound all
its own.
