With their usual class and style, Colin Wakefield and Kate Edgar have beautifully entwined two great stories to create one fantastic pantomime! Robin’s in a sunny glade with his merry men, the babes are lost in the forest with the woodland creatures and the wicked Sheriff is in his castle plotting power-hungry plans to try and capture them all. Will the Sheriff have his evil way? Or will Robin and his men find the Babes, rescue Maid Marian and be back in time for the finale? This fantastical story of adventure is suitable for outlaws of all ages, with original songs and always plenty of traditional family fun.
