Photo Flash: First Look at Kentwood Players' Kids Musical ROCKIN' ROBIN HOOD

Kentwood Players present their next Kentwood Kids Production, "Rockin' Robin Hood," a musical written by Scott Martin, directed by Samantha Barrios, produced by Drew Fitzsimmons and Melodie S. Rivers with Martin Feldman as musical director. Performances take place on Saturdays, beginning today, October 6, 13, and 20 at 11:00am and 2:00pm at the Westchester Playhouse, located at 8301 Hindry Avenue in Westchester (LA 90045). Get a first look at the production in the photos below!

Sideburns and ducktails invade Sherwood Forest as Robin Hood, his Merry Men, and the Sheriff of Nottingham, along with lots of assorted peasants and courtiers; meet the music of Elvis Presley. This musical melodrama promises to keep you cheering for the heroes and booing the villains as they sing song parodies from the 1950’s in their own "Rockin' Robin Hood" style. Please note that an adult must accompany all children in the theater.

Featured in the cast of Kentwood Kids ages 6-16 are Liam Baker, Melissa Cruz, Donovan Guiga, Logan Hannig, Lucas Hannig, Sarah V. Harnden, Dillon Hensel, Kalani Hildebrand, Osric Holt, Stephanie Hotz, Xander Karafin, Savannah Keown, Caroline Macou, Joe Olivas, Anthony Olivas, Gianna Pira, Grace Rector, Zoie Rivera, Claire Schaff, Ethan Schyman, Kira Sherman, Hollister Starrett, Miller Vaughn, Sarah Wall, Skylar Washington, Rolin Weber, Parker Weldon, Isabela Welsh, Caitlin Welsh, and Javon Willis.
