Robin Hood

Written by Lisa Avila. Revised and edited by Kelly Bazan.

Step into a hilarious, action‑packed version of Sherwood Forest where Robin Hood and his crew roast the Sheriff as hard as they steal his gold. With undercover foxes, ridiculous villains, broom‑fights, and surprise dance breaks, this play is full of jokes, teamwork, and wild plans that teens and kids will love performing. If you like improv, cosplay, meme‑worthy one‑liners, or just being dramatic with your friends onstage, this show is for you!

Character Descriptions

  • Lady Marian / The Fox: Smart, brave, secretly sneaky. Plays both noble lady and undercover fox‑spy who can definitely save herself.

  • Sheriff of Nottingham : Big, loud, and hilariously terrible at being evil. Think over‑the‑top villain with awful hair and huge tantrums.

  • Friar Tuck : Funny, food‑loving priest who pretends to be lazy but is actually wise and loyal. 

  • Will Scarlet:  Sarcastic sidekick with attitude. Always throwing shade, always in the middle of the chaos.

  • Eleanor: Tough Merry Maid who fights with a broom and takes charge.

  • Bonnie / Old Crone: Cool outlaw who transforms into a creepy old market woman to spy on the bad guys.

  • Iris: Sharp‑tongued Merry Maid who knows women make the best spies. 

  • Announcer: Snarky voice of the show with a British accent, commenting on everything (including the sound effects). 

  • The Boy: Quiet messenger who no one takes seriously, but secretly helps save the day. 

  • Squirrel : High‑energy, mostly physical role; scampers, reacts, and steals scenes without many lines.

  • Guards / Villagers / Sheriffs Men : Comic ensemble roles: chase people, get tricked, join dances, and fill out the forest and town.

    FAQ

    Q: Who can join Kidz Krew?

    A: Kids ages 8 and up, who can read, follow directions and work well with others. We strive to ensure every child who auditions will have a part in the production.  While it might not be their first choice of parts, we do strive to find a way for everyone to be involved.

    Q: Is there a cost to participate?

    A: No direct cost to participate.  There can be some indirect costs to participating.  All Kidz Krew families are asked to help out with assembling the set, props and costumes.  This could include borrowing items from your own home or friends or family.  It could also include thrifting items or purchasing new items.  Also, for each performance, each Kidz Krew family will get one free ticket.  Most families end up purchasing additional tickets to the shows. We also ask families to help provide snacks and water for the actors as well as snacks and drinks for the receptions after the shows.

    Q: Does my child need to have previous theatre experience?

    A: No!  We welcome kids with no previous experience to join the fun.  Of course, previous theatre experience is a plus.

    Q: Does my child need to prepare anything for auditions?

    A: No. Just come ready to talk and participate.  Bring a grown up too that can help with the paperwork.  Also bring the family calendar to be able to check on practice and performance dates.

    Q: Are there other ways for youth to be involved, other than acting?

    A. Yes! We need back stage helpers too.  We need folks to help with sets, props, costumes, sound, lighting, etc.

    Q: My child wants to participate, but we cannot make it to the audition time. Is there any alternative?

    A. Yes! Please contact the director by email at kellybazan.creative@gmail.com as soon as possible to see what other arrangements can be made.
