We are once again delighted to be producing another first for KMTC – Robin Hood. Yes, we have done Babes in the Wood, but we think you will love this new, modern, funny and fresh version of the much loved tale!

This is a great traditional pantomime, Once again providing an extra-large portion of comedy and some very original twists and turns along the way make for a novel and artistic production.

The fine folk of Sherwood Forest are terrorised by the mounting taxes imposed by the wicked Sheriff of Nottingham who’ll stop at nothing to seize the throne of England and claim the fair Maid Marian as his bride. Only the outlaw Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men can save the day. With the help of the hapless Silly Willy and his not so glamorous mother Nanny Fanny, can Sherwood be saved from the Sheriff’s clutches? Or will they be left all aquiver?
