A rousing, bawdy Southern fairy tale set in eighteenth century Mississippi, “The Robber Bridegroom” is the story of the courting of Rosamund, the only daughter of the richest planter in the country, by Jamie Lockhart, a rascally robber of the woods. The proceedings go awry, thanks
to an unconventional case of double-mistaken identity. Throw in an evil
stepmother intent on Rosamund’s demise, her pea-brained henchman and a
hostile talking head-in-a-trunk, and you have the recipe for a rollicking
country romp. The score includes, "Deeper in the Woods", "The Pricklepear Bloom", "Nothin' Up", "Steal with Style", "Riches", and "Where, Oh Where?". Adapted from the synopsis on MTIShows.com.
