Sherwood: The Adventures of Robin Hood
Shakespeare Tavern Playhouse
through July 2, 2023

While you may have thought that the Bard of Avon only wrote hard drama, then you will love Ken Ludwig’s camped up version of that young guy with a great aim in the Sherwood Forest. For this is not the usual Robin Hood.

As you enjoy your gastronomic choices at the Tavern, you will be delighted by the pre-show choral group, then be off to dealing with the problems of those olden days. Robin Hood (Kevin Roost) has a thing for Maid Marian (Amanda Lindsey McDonald) and Friar Tuck  (Chris Schultz) has to help move the tale along.

Directed by Andrew Houchins, the cast of 10 players does a superb job. The cast moves through a lot of song and dance numbers, and you will be awe struck by the sword play that was designed by Jake Guinn. I can assure you that nobody on stage nor in the audience will actually fall from a lunge nor an arrow.

The Tavern is like your Local Pub, and the food and grub are good, the seating is easy and has good views and nobody leaves feeling that Classic Comics might be a better way to learn. Their website is at ShakespearTavern.com
