Robin Hood: the Panto! a Must See!

Whether you are the type that likes to research before heading to a show, or if you just want to bask in the loveliness with us, you should check out what critics are saying about Robin Hood: the Panto! Click on the links to see the full reviews.


A "Must See" Show! "Jessica Puller's script...captures the fun-loving spirit of the panto. All the actors throw themselves wholeheartedly into their roles. Amy Gorelow and Vanessa Hughes, the ugly sisters/forest sprites, work together in perfect sync like the best comic duos, and Ben Muller's germophobic villain/Guy of Gisbourne injects just the right amount of wide-eyed crazy into his part. ...the audience was rolling in the aisles from beginning to end."
- Lisa Findley, CenterstageChicago.com

"Really. Go. Take the kids. Take anyone who needs a good laugh. For your helping of holiday cheer, this is the genuine article!"
- Patricia Simms, LaSplash.com



"...the cast excels at driving a sassy pace and playing every moment with gusto. What is even more important is the spot-on improvisation and interaction with the audience that they deliver....memorable moments include Noah Ginex’s magic scene and puppetry design, as well as Vanessa Hughes and Amy Gorelow playing the evil spirits of the Dark Forest, busting out a power ballad just like the 1980’s duo, Heart. But the show really is about the pact between audience and players to have a ridiculous, raucous good time. To that end, bring your friends and family. And watch out for the whipped cream."

"A Hoot and a Holler!"

"Performed with unstoppable gusto and unfailing impudence...louder than life and beautifully burlesque." - Lawrence Bommer,
