Artistic Associate Ryan Oliveti and actress Casey Schuler stopped by WABE radio to talk about Serenbe Playhouse’s production of Robin Hood, and it will warm the cockles of your heart.
Actor Casey Shuler, playing Maid Marian, says she appreciates getting to play an empowered take on her character.
“She has this really beautiful monologue mid-show,” Shuler said of Maid Marian. “She realizes what she can handle and what she can do. I actually had a younger girl come up to me after one of the shows. She said ‘I want to be a princess, but I want to be a princess like that.’ [Marian] is powerful. She can handle everything the boys can handle.”
Right!? Mission Accomplished.
