It’s a beautiful day in Trout Lake for Robin Hood and the Merry-Thems—or it should have been! Alas, the naughty Sheriff has other plans—the parks have been privatized! Now everyone, including the birds and animals, has to pay to use the park. A trip to the library to read up on their rights leads Robin and friends on a grand adventure to invade Britannia, to retrieve the keys to the city’s public amenities, and try to steal back our neighbourhood from the rich and powerful.

Theatre Replacement’s East Van Panto returns for its twelfth year, welcoming back the creative team behind last year’s hit: Beauty and the Beast. Co-Playwrights Jivesh Parasram & Christine Quintana, Composer & Musical Director Veda Hille, and Director Anita Rochon return to bring you East Van’s wackiest all-ages tradition!

The Draw

“Year after year, almost without fail, Theatre Replacement’s East Van Pantos are some of the most innovative, entertaining productions we see all season.”
—Colin Thomas, Vancouver Theatre Critic
