The Robber Bridegroom
Time: November 8, 2019
Venue/Location:
The Averett Theatre & Music Departments present a rousing, bawdy Southern fairytale set in eighteenth-century Mississippi. The show follows Jamie Lockhart, a rascally robber of the woods, as he courts Rosamund, the only daughter of the richest planter in the country. The proceedings go awry, however, thanks to a case of double-mistaken identity. Throw in an evil stepmother, her hen-pecked husband, a henchman and a hostile talking head-in-a-trunk, and you have a rollicking country romp.
