The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood at The Shelburne Players

"The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood" with the Shelburne Players

Join The Shelburne Players for our 40th production! "The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood" takes the stage for six side-splitting, family-friendly shows.

“It sure is hard to be humble when you're a swashbuckling, egocentric super-hero. But our gallant guy-in-green tries his best as he swaggers through The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood, a frantically funny, Monty Pythonesque retelling of the classic. This time around, the legendary legend, in his never-ending quest to aid the needy, encounters a lovely damsel-in-distress (oddly obsessed with skin conditions); an ever-scheming sheriff who would rather bowl a strike than hit a bull's-eye; a gold-hoarding, bad-guy monarch wannabe; and a good-natured "Town's Gal/Guy" who manages to make their way into every scene, whether they belong there or not. Combine them with an expandable band of spoon-wielding Merry Men (and/or Women) whose collective IQs equal six, and you've got an irreverent jaunt through Sherwood Forest you won't soon forget!”
