Polo Area Community Theatre to present ‘The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood’ in May

POLO – The Polo Area Community Theatre is in rehearsals for “The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood,” written by Mary Lynn Dobson.

This action-packed, silly adaptation will be presented at 7 p.m. May 2, 3 and 9, and at 2 p.m. May 4 and 10 at the former Polo Town Hall, 117 N. Franklin Ave.

Tickets are $15 for adults, $12 for seniors age 60 and older, and $10 for children younger than 10.

“In this frantically funny retelling of the traditional story, the gallant guy-in-green swaggers through in his quest to aid the needy,” PACT officials said in a news release. “On the way, he encounters some very unusual versions of the classic characters. Along with his spoon-wielding Merry Men, whose collective IQs equal 6, he jaunts through Sherwood Forest on a mission to rescue Lady Marian. This action-packed and silly adaptation is one the whole family will enjoy.”

Cast members include Micah Megill as Robin Hood, Jeff Davidson as Friar Tuck, Wesley Diehl as Allan Adale, Caleb Jones as Little John, Rick Fustin as Will Scarlet and Wesley Blankenbehler as The Town’s Guy.
