ROBIN HOOD THE MUSICAL World Premier in Sweden  Image

Robin Hood the Musical World Premier 27th of October

Dröse & Norberg, Sweden's largest family music producer, gives new life to another classic! First came the Wizard of Oz, then Snow White The Musical, the adventure Aladdin and the Jungle Book The Musical.

Now is the time to visit Sherwood Forest and the outlaw legend Robin Hood. The first three artists in the musical have just been announced: Idol winner Martin Almgren, actor Joakim Nätterqvist known from among others. the success films Arn and the musical artist Patrik Martinsson with roles in eg. Jesus Christ Superstar, Miss Saigon and most recent as Shakespeare in Something Rotten et al.

In Robin Hood -The Musical, we meet farmer Robert Locksley whose family has been killed in a tax-raid by the dreaded Sheriff of Nottingham. This has forced Robert to live as an outlaw along with a bunch of like-minded people in Sherwood Forest. As the oldest and most wise Brother Tuck is admired by everyone in the gang and most want to be a "brother" to him. However, Tuck would rather see the others as "half-brothers only". In order to create more cohesion, he instead proposes a gang uniform with jacket and hood. All members then choose their name to contain the word Hood. Robert chooses Robin Hood.

By chance, Robin Hood and his gang happen to overpower and rob one of Prince John's money transports. This causes the entire gang to go to the market in Nottingham where Robin hits

Lady Marion, daughter of King Richard Lion's Heart, currently living with the very self-centered Prince John of England. Lightning sounds arise between Robin and Marion which is not becoming popular with Rebecca who is in Robin's Sherwood gang.

Rebecca's jealousy causes her to betray Robin who gets into the claws of Prince John. Rescue operations are being launched and now a spiral of exciting events is emerging that ends in a final completely worthy of this new interpretation of the legend Robin Hood.
