“The Legend of Robin Hood… Soft Of” is a play about a man named Robin who practiced with a bow and violin, instead of a bow and arrow. Just like the classic story of Robin Hood, Robin aims to steal from the rich and give to the poor, but Robin is taken captive by the evil Sheriff of Nottingham after being tricked by a rhyming witch.

Several students took the opportunity to be a part of the school’s production of “The Legend of Robin Hood… Sort Of” by trying out Jan. 16.

“It wasn’t what I expected, mostly because I didn’t anticipate anything,” sophomore Caden Runnalls said.

Although auditioning can be scary, for some,it worked out the way they wanted. Sophomore Ben Doffing tried out for the lead role, Robin Hood.

“[I didn’t expect to get the lead role] because I was intimidated by Caden, who was also trying out for the lead role,” Doffing said.

For some, auditioning is nerve-wracking, but for others, it can be natural.

“I like being in front of people, that’s just me,” freshman Amy Zoglmann said.

The play performances will be March 31 at 1 p.m. during sixth hour and again at 7 p.m. and on April 1 at 8 p.m. Conway Springs High School will continue to have plays every spring during the school year, so if you missed auditions this year and want to be in a play next year, make sure to audition for a spot before they’re all taken.

Crew members are still needed for the play (costume lead, prop lead, and set lead) so get ahold of production manager and English teacher Tamara Salisbury if you are interested.
