Expect audience involvement, actors laughing throughout the play and a childish sense of mind from the next theater production, “Robin Hood.”
The play will feature eight actors, who will play multiple roles. This is the first time this play has been at Baker, and according to Associate Professor of Theatre Tom Heiman, “It’s nuts.”
“We expect our audience to act like children,” Heiman said. “There is some audience participation of cheering on Robin Hood to booing Prince John. It just will be a lot of fun and I am looking forward to the actors to laugh out loud.”
The show is meant to bring the actors out of their element and break the odds by testing their limits of what they should and should not do. The play will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 8-10 in Rice Auditorium and followed with a matinee at 2 p.m. Nov. 11.
“Bring your younger sisters and brothers, sit up front for this show while being beware of the back, and be prepared for the actors to have times where they are allowed to deem whatever is necessary to get the audience involved in the show,” Heiman said.
