Regents Park is the perfect venue for this show, as you are nestled among the trees and the sun sets it makes for a very atmospheric spot to spend an evening. Robin Hood: The Legend. Re-Written is a new production which aims to bring a new twist to this classic and well-known tale. It is written by Carl Grose, directed by Melly Still and with music composed by Jenny Moore.
Its primary strength came from having the two layers of the stage; the above was used primarily for the elite and the below for the outlaws. This effectively showed the division between these two class groups. The artificial lighting gave a good distinction of when a scene was set outside or inside and the revolving stage was used well to shift between scenes. Scene transitions took place with a swift ‘swishing’ effect using long sticks, which evoked the sound of an arrow.
