2024-2025 Professional Theater Season The Robber Bridegroom

The Robber Bridegroom, Music by Robert Waldman, Book and Lyrics by Alfred Uhry. Directed by Scott Spence, Music Direction Larry Goodpaster, Choreography by Lauren Marousek. Studio Theater, May 30 to June 29, 2025, with THURSDAY June 12, June 19, and June 26, 2025.  Produced with special arrangements with MTI Musical Theatre International.

Winner of the 2016 Lucille Lortel Award for Outstanding Revival, this musical is based on the novella of the same name written in 1942 by Eudora Welty. A sense of justice for the average person compels us to seek out Robin Hood type heroes. This fairytale is set to bluegrass music - the perfect soundtrack setting for the intimate Studio Theater. It is a universal classic; set in the late 18th century, the musical ran on Broadway in the mid-1970s, and it is just as inspiring today.

“This is designed as a good time,“ --Entertainment Weekly.
