Me & Robin Hood
A Hoipolloi & Royal Court co-production in association with Pleasance, PBJ Management & Theatre Royal Plymouth. Supporting Street Child United.
Hoipolloi’s latest show is about Shôn Dale-Jones’s longstanding relationship with his favourite fictional friend that seeks to raise money for Street Child United, a charity that uses the power of sport to change the way the world negatively sees and treats street- connected children.
Shôn first met Robin Hood in the Autumn of 1975 and they’ve have been good mates ever since. Robin’s been going crazy recently about the direction our world is heading. This show is his idea and they both are determined to change the story of money.
Shôn Dale-Jones delivers a thoughtful piece about inequality, myths and taking control of your own story... it is engaging and thoughtful as it gnaws away at inequality of opportunities and the widening gap between rich and poor, and asks whether art really can change the world.
