About
Robbin' Hood of the Old West, a bad Western adaptation of the Robin Hood story is reaching its conclusion. The egregiously untalented leading lady, Jessica Cranshaw is a triple threat: she can't sing, act, or dance (or remember when to say her lines). To the relief of everyone, she is murdered during her opening night curtain call. The entire company comes under suspicion, and Lt. Frank Cioffi of the Boston Police Department is called in to solve the homicide. Believing that the perpetrator is still in the building, he sequesters it.
The Suspects include the hard-bitten lady producer, Carmen Bernstein; her husband, Sidney; the show's flamboyant director Christopher Belling; divorced songwriting team Aaron Fox and Georgia Hendricks; Stage Manager Johnny Harmon; choreographer/leading man Bobby Pepper, ingénue Niki Harris, and ambitious chorine Bambi Bernét.
The company use its spare time to attempt to fix the show's problems. Meanwhile, secrets are surfacing, the production numbers in Robbin' Hood are rewritten, rehearsed and rewritten again, and the body count is rising. Can Cioffi solve the case, save the show, and get the girl before the curtain rises without getting offed himself? This is a musical, after all!
Experience this total comedy musical under the stars on a July night in front of a repurposed horse barn stage. As the night cools and the popcorn crunches, relax and enjoy this 45 year tradition with a large cast in the open air. Ye Olde Opera House knows how to do this, and we do it well. While your here, stop at the local brewery or distillery in town to make it a Spring Grove weekend. We love our town, and we'd love to share it with you. Reserve your tickets starting July 1st on our website or by calling 507-498-JULY. https://yeoldeoperahouse.org/tickets The whole community has come together to put on these summer musicals since 1978, not to mention 3 or more shows downtown at our other locations. This performance is in the black barn labeled "THE MYRAH BARN" 1/4 mile East of downtown Spring Grove on Highway 44 (Main Street).
