MARIAN, OR THE TRUE TALE OF ROBIN HOOD
by Adam Szymkowicz
a co-production with Wild Card Productions
Director: Britt Byrd

STORY: A gender-bending, patriarchy-smashing, hilarious new take on the classic tale. Robin Hood is (and has always been) Maid Marian in disguise, and leads a motley group of Merry Men (few of whom are actually men) against the greedy Prince John. As the poor get poorer and the rich get richer, who will stand for the vulnerable if not Robin? What is the cost of revealing your true self in a time of trouble? Modern concerns and romantic entanglements clash on the battlefield and on the ramparts of Nottingham Castle. A play about selfishness and selflessness and love deferred and the fight. Always the fight. The fight must go on.

About the organizer
WE ARE
We are a Meisner Technique training program for new and seasoned actors.
We are a women-led theatre company of Nashville natives dedicated to telling the stories our hometown needs to hear.
We are committed to taking big risks in the service of authentically reflecting the human condition.
We are in love with broadening what is considered theater in our community.
We are people who help others find their voice and speak their truths on stage and in life.
WE BELIEVE
We believe in theater’s power to heal us in a thousand places we may not have realized needed healing.
We believe that the theater is a sacred calling: we make a promise to our community to stay emotionally connected in a world that praises going numb. We promise to feel and remind our audiences how good feeling can be.
We believe in the ensemble principle. The person you see on stage in one show you will likely see behind the light board in the next. The person selling tickets may also be a budding new playwright. Your usher is likely an aspiring actor.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to tell the stories Nashville needs to hear as we train theater artists, produce socially conscious plays, create new work, expand what counts as theater in our community, and help artists and audiences care more about their neighbors and themselves.
We are the home of Act Like a GRRRL and First Time Stories.
