LITTLE JOHN: A toast! To the newest member of our happy family, Maid Marian!
Here, here!
BOLD BETH: So you two knew each other growing up?
ROBIN HOOD: Yes. We lived near each other.
MAID MARIAN: I remember the day we met.
ROBIN HOOD: My father had just taken his position as head forester of sherwood Forest, near the earl of Huntington.
MAID MARIAN: The earl was my father.
ROBIN HOOD: Marion was so proper. She dressed in frilly dresses and played with dolls
MAID MARIAN: My mother wanted me to be a lady of the court.
ROBIN HOOD: It was extremely boring.
MAID MARIAN: Yes, well, I met Roberta when we were 6
ROBIN HOOD: I was exploring
In the woods, when I ran into Marian.
MAID MARIAN: literally. Roberta taught me how to climb trees, explore the forest, play games
ROBIN HOOD: Shoot arrows, fight with quarterstaffs, and dig up worms
MAID MARIAN: We became best friends!
ROBIN HOOD: And when I make a friend, I make it for life.
LITTLE JOHN: I thought I was your best friend
ROBIN HOOD: It’s ok, little john. There is room in my heart for many good friends.
MAID MARIAN: Well, my mother thought Roberta was a bad influence on me. She wanted me to be more ladylike.
ROBIN HOOD: She forbid us to see each other again. But we met secretly anyway
MAID MARIAN: I taught Roberta how to use a good disguise
ROBIN HOOD: But her mother found out one day when we were 11
MAID MARIAN: My mother was so mad, she sent me to Queen Eleanors court to become a lady in waiting
ROBIN HOOD: And I never saw her again until I was in prince John’s castle the other day.
JILL SCARLET: No, my father is innocent! He has done nothing wrong
ROBIN HOOD: And He was innocent.
JILL SCARLET: Release my father, or I’ll shoot
ROBIN HOOD: I had picked up my father’s bow, and it was bigger than I.
ALANA DALE: So then she ran and ran and ran
ROBIN HOOD: I easily outran the sheriff and bishop.
LITTLE JOHN: And in case you get another chance at the sheriff.
You are sure to hit him!
Well done, thespians, well done. Welcome to the sherwood forest, Maid Marian. Welcome to our company.
JILL SCARLET: We ask your whole mind, body, and heart. Evan unto death.
Huzzah!
