Babes in the Wood

With Robin Hood as the hero and the evil Sheriff of Nottingham as the Babes’ wicked guardian, this is the classic pantomime battle between Good and Evil. The story combines the legend of Robin Hood with the traditional pantomime of The Babes In The Wood. Packed with lots of swash-buckling heroics, there are also opportunities for much traditional panto business, and a bit of romance too! The comedy is carried by the outrageous Nurse Norah, and the Sheriff’s stupid bungling side-kick Herman the Henchman. There is both knock-about and verbal humour, loads of audience participation, and several set piece comic routines including the classic Schoolroom Scene, and a fantasy toy ballet in the Nursery.
