That Punk, Robin Hood
Down with fascist King John!
It's 1215 AD and punk rock rebellion is bubbling up in feudal England. Robin Hood and his ex-lover Maid Marian, now the newly powerful Earl of Nottingham, clash over their approach to revolution. Or maybe they just hate each other.
Things come to a head when King John arrives to bring law and order to Nottingham. At the king's festival, the unthinkable happens; Robin is imprisoned and Marian sparks a peasant revolution to topple the English monarchy. Will their noble ideals survive betrayal, death, and ultimate power?
You know. Just your typical Robin Hood story.

Next Steps:
I've made some big edits to the show since its last reading and I'd like to hear it out loud. Also, I would love to have the resources to have a rock pit play the score instead of either me on piano or pre-recorded tracks. Ideally, the actors would play their own instruments in the next presentation.
