According to BroadwayWorld.com Australia’s Anthony Warlow will be starring in a staged reading of a new musical in New York City next month.

Robin Hood – The Final Adventure is a brand new musical with a book by Tony Award winner Thomas Meehan (The Producers, Annie), music by Peter Sipos (Contact) and lyrics/direction by Tony Award winner Martin Charnin (Annie) and it is understood that Warlow will star as the heroic outlaw himself – Robin Hood.

Warlow made his Broadway debut in November last year as Daddy Warbucks in the revival of Annie, which is currently playing at the Palace Theatre.

The staged readings of this new production will be shown to an audience of invited guests over two days (Friday May 3 and Monday May 6), presented by Jana Robbins and Better World Productions.

Robin Hood, long thought to have been killed in the final battle of the Crusades, returns to England, to once again take up arms against the brutal tyranny of the brainless King John. There he reunites with his beloved Maid Marian, who has, to say the least, a major surprise for him, as they set off together on his last and greatest adventure!
