Answer:

Scene 1. Sherwood Forest. The Bishop of Hereford is traveling to London through Sherwood Forest with the Lovely

Fiona, a young recently orphaned maiden, when they are stopped by Robin and his merry men. Fiona is reluctantly

betrothed to an elderly nobleman. The Bishop will be receiving a large sum for his efforts in securing a lovely wife for

the nobleman. Fiona is miserable and does not wish to marry, but she must obey the Bishop or be sent into servitude.

Robin takes the Bishop’s money, and gives it to Fiona. Fiona finds love with Will Scarlett. Seeing Will and Fiona so

happy reminds him of his love for Marian.

Scene 2. Inside Nottingham Castle. The Sheriff expresses his hate for Robin.

Scene 3. Outside of Nottingham. The Sheriff’s men are searching for Robin. They see starving peasants who are illegally killing deer to feed their families and brutally attack them. They frighten children and terrorize women. Many

people are handcuffed and taken to the castle dungeon. In their arrogance, they become more and more aggressive,

and blind to the horror they are inflicting. Robin and his men do their best, but it is not enough. Robin fervently wishes for King Richard to return from the Crusades.

Scene 4. Sherwood Forest. Robin is in the forest, frustrated and angry at the misdeeds of the sheriff’s men when Bess,

Marian’s lady-in-waiting, arrives at the outlaw’s hideaway. Startled, he asks her what is wrong. She tells him that the

Sheriff has charged Marion with treason, and that she will be beheaded within a fortnight. Nothing will stand in Robin’s way of saving the woman he loves, and he is off to the castle.

Scene 5. Inside Nottingham Castle. In the castle, the Sheriff is pouring over his papers when Robin surprises him.

Robin and the Sheriff fight to the death. Glenwys arrives to find her husband mortally wounded. She lunges for Robin

with a hidden dagger, but is saved by the timely arrival of Little John, Will and Friar Tuck. Robin finds Marian, little

the worse for wear, and they once again declare their love.

Scene 6. Outside of Nottingham. The villagers celebrate May Day and their release from the Sheriff’s tyranny. Robin

and Marian are to be crowned King and Queen of the May. At the height of the festivities, King Richard appears, returned from the war. In appreciation of his loyalty and devotion, the King knights Robin, dubbing him Robin, Earl of

Locksley. Peace has returned, and justice has triumphed - and love has conquered all.
