Synopsis (Dramatic Publishing)

It sure is hard to be humble when you’re a swashbuckling, egocentric super-hero. But our gallant guy-in-green tries his best as he swaggers through The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood, a frantically funny, Monty Pythonesque retelling of the classic. This time around, the legendary legend, in his never-ending quest to aid the needy, encounters a lovely damsel-in-distress (oddly obsessed with skin conditions); an ever-scheming sheriff who would rather bowl a strike than hit a bull’s-eye; a gold-hoarding, bad-guy monarch wannabe; and a good-natured “Town’s Guy” who manages to make his way into every scene, whether he belongs there or not. Combine them with an expandable band of spoon-wielding Merry Men whose collective IQs equal six, and you’ve got an irreverent jaunt through Sherwood Forest you won’t soon forget!

Character Descriptions

ROBIN HOOD:
He’s quite impressed with himself. (A cross between Dudley DoRight and Frasier’s Niles Crane.) To feed his ego, one must fill a void the size of the Grand Canyon. However, his heart is good, for his mission is to help the homeless and poor of England.

LADY MARIAN:
She is the niece of King Richard and Prince John. She is also Robin’s true love. She is a cross between Emma Thompson and Miss Piggy. She is kind, charming, and shares Robin’s quest to aid the needy. However, she has a strange obsession with skin conditions.

PRINCE JOHN:
He’s typically evil, selfish, greedy and has positively no regard for the welfare of England or its people. Should be largely despicable.

SHERIFF OF NOTTINGHAM:
Shares all of Prince’s prime qualities. Moreover, he is a master sportsman and Robin’s chief rival. He also hopes to marry Marian.

TOWN’S GUY:
Befriends Robin and helps him out of a few tight situations while teaching him some valuable lessons at the same time. Serves as the story’s narrator.

LADY IN WAITING:
Fed up with life in the castle.

FRIAR TUCK:
A holy relic.

THE MERRY MEN:
Collectively, the Merry Men should behave somewhat like a pack of happy, but none-too-bright stray dogs.

  • LITTLE JOHN (big lummox with an I.Q. of 6)
  • ALLAN ADALE (slightly brighter than Little John)
  • WILL SCARLET (the wise guy)
  • DONALD or DONNA
  • MARY or MARTY
  • BEULAH or BYRON
  • LIONEL or LENORE
  • DEBBIE or DENNIS

FAWNING LADIES:
ladies who fawn over Prince John

GUARDS (2):
men wearing black robes and hooded masks
