Robin Hoodie and His Merry People – the Murder Mystery Panto!

Southwell Theatre Club’s popular winter murder mystery will again have a pantomime theme. This year it’s to be ‘Robin Hoodie and His Merry People’ – oh yes it is!

‘So successful have the outlaws been in robbing the rich to give to the poor, there are no poor anymore! Bored almost to death, Alan a-dale, the resident minstrel organizes snail races; Friar Tuckin dreams of his next meal; Robin is ensuring his horse is kept off the menu; and Mad Marion is bossing them all about. Throw in an invisible forest sprite, the devious Sheriff of Nottingham, the treacherous Prioress of Kirklees, Pitkin an innumerate peasant, and you have a recipe for mayhem – and murder!’

Directed by Pat Munro and written by Janet Smith, public performances will be at Southwell Library, King Street, Southwell on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 December at 7.30pm. Bar available. Tickets priced £10, include a light supper, and are on sale now at Southwell Library 01636 812148 or online www.ticketsource.co.uk/southwelltheatreclub
