Asolo Rep is thrilled to present this extraordinary new musical comedy, bound for the world’s stages. Everyone loves a goodhearted outlaw, but only Robin Hood has captured the public imagination for nearly nine centuries. Everything old is new again as we follow the exciting escapades of Robin and his Merry Band as he fights to restore justice to the people of Sherwood, win the heart of the smart and sassy Maid Marian and rid the land of the avaricious Sheriff of Nottingham once and for all. With thrilling sword fights, spirited heroes and dastardly villains, this much-loved tale gets a hilarious 21st-century twist by five-time Tony-nominated playwright Douglas Carter Beane, with a folk and rock-infused score by Lewis Flinn. Intoxicating, joyful and enchanting, Hood celebrates the hero in everybody's heart. Contains mature themes. Recommended for age 14+
