Shakespeare by the Sea, Halifax

[citation needed] In the summer of 2005, the company went away from the Pool Noodle concept and transformed the family show into a musical, directed by Jesse MacLean, with music written by actor Jeremy Hutton and lyrics by Hutton, MacLean, William Foley, Kevin MacPherson, and Kate Smith titled The Adventures of Robin Hood.

[citation needed] Shakespeare By The Sea brought the show back to Point Pleasant Park for production in the summer of 2011, garnering significant popular and critical success.

[2] In January, 2013, Toronto's Hart House Theatre presented a three-week run of the newest incarnation of the show, now entitled "Robin Hood: The Legendary Musical Comedy".

[citation needed] In some years a one-off peripatetic performance is staged, using various local, historic sites and batteries as dramatic settings for the play.

[citation needed] Murphy led the drive to develop the rehearsal and office space that the company uses into The Park Place Theatre, an 82-seat black box venue, to be used in the event of poor weather during the summer.

The venue has also become a valued rehearsal and performance space for other small theatre companies based in Nova Scotia from September to May each year.
