For Spring 2023, The Shelburne Players Presents...

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!
