The family saga of Robin Hood continues in this musical adventure (back for its third year) by award-winning playwrights and composers Stephen and Teresa Gashler. Imagine The Scarlet Pimpernel meets Les Misérables with a heavy dose of humor and sensational music inspired by Celtic Woman, River Dance, and Two Steps From Hell.

Paradigms shift as trusted kings become tyrants, heroes become villains, and “stealing from the rich and giving to the poor” no longer seems ethical. When England falls to mobs and chaos, Aspen, the free-spirited daughter of Robin Hood, must do what it takes to save England from civil war.
