In Bed With Robin Hood Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2001
In Bed With Robin Hood

Show Rating:In Bed With Robin Hood rated 1/5

As the title suggests, this is a combination of modern day and folk legend, and tells of the angst suffered by Robin Hood as he lies ill in a hospital bed.

The journey was in the style of Ebeneezer Scrooge, with flashbacks to past misdemeanours. But although adequately acted, the ideas never really got off the ground.

The various characters played by Kesselofski and Fiske were in no means challenging and verged on slapstick with their weak material.

An uninspired mixture of mediocre lines and almost pantomimesque songs certainly left me with an urge to shout "he's behind you".

It all felt very dated, and trudged along to a lacklustre finale that just sort of petered out.
