Join us for Robin Hood in the park this summer in Westerville! Sword fights, secret identities, love, betrayal, and redemption: history and legend collide in this new tale of Robin Hood. 800 years ago, when the Brothers Huntingdon lost their parents to the treachery of the Plantagenets, their lives took very different paths. When they cross again in Sherwood Forest, they find a maiden on a quest, a queen fighting for freedom, and the King who destroyed their family. Divided by their past and united by a family secret, the brothers' feud puts the fate of England at stake. One brother must choose whether to put law before kin, while the other must choose between being a noble and being an outlaw; which it turns out, might just be in his blood.
