In this entertaining production, Prince John has decreed that the citizens of Nottingham pay weekly taxes or face the penalty of death. His decrees are enforced by the evil Sheriff of Nottingham. The citizens think that all hope is lost until they hear word of a noble hero, Robin Hood of Locksley. Robin Hood, with the help of his merry men (which are mostly girls) robs from the rich, gives to the poor, and saves the fair Maid Marian. The comic retelling of the story includes thumb wars, missed cues and a slow motion fight scene.
