Directed by Judy Sampson, the students of Hills Youth Theatre are looking forward to presenting their January 2014 production ‘Robin Hood – The Musical’ from Pioneer Drama Services, Inc. Robin Hood is the outlaw of Sherwood Forest, leading a merry life with his followers. Anyone needing a place to live or food to eat is welcome in the greenwood. Impoverished citizens led by Robin are waging a battle against the evil Prince John. He has taken the place of King Richard the Lion-Hearted, who has gone on a crusade. Lady Merle of Cornwall, however, hopes to make John more acceptable to the people of England by forcing Maid Marian, Robin’s childhood sweetheart, to marry the Prince. It’s up to Robin to stop the marriage, defeat a nasty sheriff and secure Nottingham for the king’s return.
Based on the book by Tim Kelly, Music by Arne Christiansen and Lyrics by Ole Kittleson.
