Robin Hood – July 2004

 

On Sunday July 18th the Oddsocks Theatre Company returned to the arboretum to treat us to a performance of ‘The Legend of Robin Hood’.

After a miserable couple of weeks, summer finally arrived and we were all able to enjoy our picnics on a warm and sunny evening.

The performers were talented and enthusiastic, the dialogue witty and the adlibs appropriate.

All in all, a superb evening.
