Macastory’s Robin Hood and the Golden Arrow
Sherwood Forest comes to the Scottish Storytelling Centre for this season's fun-filled festive Macastory Panto!
About Macastory’s Robin Hood and the Golden Arrow
"Robin Hood, Robin Hood riding through the Glen...”
We're off on a right good rollicking adventure deep into Sherwood Forest, where the dastardly duo of Sir Guy of Grisslebone and his mother, the evil Sheriff of Morningside, are plotting to capture Robin and his band of Merry-Makers: Friar Tuck, Wilma Scarlett and Maid McMarion... They need YOU to join the gang, help win the contest for the Golden Arrow and outsmart the shifty Sheriff.
Sing along! Cheer the goodies! Boo the baddies! And watch out… SHE’S BEHIND YOU!
Perfect Panto Patter especially devised for a young audience and their grown-ups, full of fun and laughter with all your favourite panto moments, all packed into a cracker of an hour
It’s a BIG story for LITTLE people!
PANTO IS BACK! OH YES IT IS!
