The history of this production is rich, with its origins tracing back to 1977 when the Bad Actors of the Davis Old Palms Playhouse performed a musical version of Robin Hood to rave reviews. Inspired by this, the Winters Theatre Company created its own original “Robin Hood” musical in 2020, blending songs from the original production with new music. Although initially scheduled for live performance in May 2020, the production was postponed due to COVID-19 and was later adapted for a Zoom performance during the pandemic.
We are thrilled to bring this show to life on stage at the Winters Opera House, with performances scheduled on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from November 22 through December 1.
