Interlude 1 Dark-to-dawn forest dance.
[From darkness to Red dawn. Music. The Greenwood trees
branches move and sigh. In the predawn shadows creatures
leap about the forest landscape. Forest characters and the
Animal Band can remain in scene when the EcoMystics are
present. The owl puppet, Balthazar, flaps its wings. Robin
stands in bangarang fashion and crows (i.e. fists on hips,
legs apart, chest up). All disappear except a moth puppet
(operated by Moth) fluttering around the poster and a fox
puppet (which is actually Foxfires fox hat) watching the
moth from his hole. Music down.]
Interlude 2 Wizard Greets the Sun
Moth: That human has the spark of seeing.
[The tree moves. Merwood appears in the trees crevice. He
holds a stone bowl burning incense. Moth, Robin and Foxfire
enter wearing masks. Robin wears a Green Man mask. Other
forest creatures can move about. The Animal Band plays a
morning song.]
Merwood: Love be all and life my call! Unseen forces of
life! Help humans see wild entities. Lift the veil of dull
circumstance. Awaken deep-magic sentience. Cast wide the
doors of perception. Knit and weave consciousness till all
pass beyond believing into forever seeing. Drink in the
first rays of the Sun! Welcome Sun!
All: Welcome Sun! [Morning song continues. Lights brighten.Sunrays stream over audience. Merwood disappears back into
the Greenwood tree. Characters lift their masks. Fox chases
Moth around. She is playful but wont let him catch her.
She climbs the silks up into the tree.]
Background score for the fight:Robin: Have at you! [He and Foxfire play fight capoeira-
style. (Capoeira is a style of fighting in which the
combatants keep space between them and react as if their
opponent had hit them. Its style is similar to break
dancing). Moth retrieves food from the bivouac and thenshares fruit and bread and tea].
Foxfire: Any meat?
Effect sound for falling:Foxfire: Ill handle it. Ill dismantle it. Until then I
suppose Ill fall into the familiar comfort of a lover. [He
tries to lean on Moth who lets him fall].

Moth: We live simply in harmony with the green world. What
else can we do? [She falls comfortably against Robin.]
Forest spirit echo:Moth: A powerful spirit of place resides here.
Moth calls to the Faerie Queen:Moth: The tea is lovely. Mint and lavender, yum! [A toast.]
When humans learn what mythic symbols mean, they will see
the Faerie Queen.
Robin: The Faerie Queen!
Magic of Moonlight:
Moth: Cool your fiery nature, Fox. We are but mystics who
understand the magic of moonlight.
Underscore the capoeira:Robin: Luckily, were friends! [They play a few capoeira
moves.]
Foxfire: Bring it! Lets match their destruction, with our
chaos!
Robin: The forest needs you free.
Foxfire: Im tricky; theyll not catch me.
Robin: Our goal is wider than this one road. What reaches
into the human heart and opens it to love, frees it from
fear?
Foxfire: Nothing Ive ever seen. Too many humans, too much
fear.
Moth: Some humans care. I wandered into town by moonlight.Many humans are gathered there to protest this road. Yawn!
Now off to bed in swaying branches. This faerie sleeps best
in warm sunlight streams. [They still fight. She
stretches.]
Merwoods entrance, tree creaks and sighs, underscore of his vision thatMoth dances to:Merwood: [Entering, peering from tree crevice.] All are
born of the green world and all return to its roots after a
short span of days. [Emerging from tree.] Come closer, my
apprentice, young Moth.Moth: Merwood.
Merwood: I had a vision lightning struck the Greenwood
tree. [The Greenwood tree creaks and moves a little.]
Moth: Tell me.
Merwood: In my vision, all sorts of creatures emerged from
the tree. They were dancing around the glade.
Moth: Like this? [She dances.]

Merwood: Yes, yes! They danced through the forest and out
into the town.
Robin: Do the creatures re-grow the forest, Merwood?
Merwood: The forest spreads its arms to once again embrace
the land, stretching its long fingers to the sea.
Moth: Surely this vision will come to pass.
Foxfire: [Chanting and dancing with Robin and Moth.] The
earth, the wind, the fire, the water, return, return,
return! [Repeat with EcoMystics].
Robin: Im glad we banded together. How lucky I am to have
friends who share my love of the Greenwood! I feel rich.
[Owl cry: Whoo-hoo!]
Underscore the exit:
Foxfire: [Foxfire has lifted some of the survey markers and
is using them as daggers.] Does anyone smell bacon?
Moth: [Scrambles up the Greenwood Tree on her silks.
Merwood retreats back into his tree.] Away, away on Hermes
quicksilver wings. Comes here the Sheriff of Nottingham.
Robin: My Nemesis! [Darts into bivouac.] Foxfire, down your
hole. Moth, keep hidden! Merwood? Disappeared, have you?
Lances theme:Scene 3 The Evil Sheriff
Lance: [Enters cautiously with poster to tack onto tree.]
Lances theme:
[Makes sure hes alone, then talks to the forest.] TheForest spirits hide by day, a knight can get lost in its
night. Forests eat humans, beware! Who can brave the wolf
that watches the world of the woods: inhabited by the
ghosts of the gods, by creatures, by tree spirits, by gum,
by beech, by Greenwood tree? [Play fights, and lunges and
laughs] Sir Lance-a-lots armor glints blinding light from
the sun. He rescues the kingdom from the evil grip of greed
and stupidity! Ha!
Walkie-Talkie effect:
[Walkie-talkie crackles. Lance screams.] Ahhh! [Lancechecks the time while answering the page and straightens
his appearance.] Time for my meeting with Kingson. [Walkie-
Talkie crackles.] Sheriff Lance, here. [Crackle.] Authur
Kingsons there? Im on my way. [Crackle.] I posted the
notice. [Crackle.] Well, you can tell Kingson, the Sheriff
of Nottingham answers only to the Sheriff of Nottingham!
[Crackle.] Wait, dont say that. [Crackle.] What I said.

Dont say what I said. [Crackle.] The part about, answering
to... [Crackle.] Listen! Let me deal with Kingson. Sheriff,
out. [To the Forest:] If you know whats good for you,
youll be out of here by morning. Of course some of you
cannot flee. [Pats the Greenwood tree and exits running.]
Ecomystics theme for entrance:
Scene 4 EcoMystics must leave by dawn.
[Moth flies down on her silks. Foxfire comes out of his
den.]
Robins theme:
Robin: [He jumps up and stands bangarang style.] Fear not
this black road, brave Robin! Tis a grand adventure. I do
believe I will get to fight the evil Sheriff!
Fire in rocket stove effect:
Foxfire: Rubbish. Im famished. [Goes to rocket stove to
make food.]
Robins theme:
Robin: [Picks up his bow.] Where is the bulls eye of our
target? Where should I aim my last arrow to split the tree?
Robins theme:
Robin: [Pause. Mimes shooting an arrow.] Bulls eye! Lets
call the protestors to us like the merry men of old!
Moths theme:Moth: I can make a wind to blow them here, but all my power
comes from moonlight. After nightfall, I will call without
harm or spell or charm.
Merwoods (Greenwood Trees) theme:
Merwood: [Greenwood tree creeks. Merwood comes out.] Moth?
I fell asleep. My dreams disturb me.
Moth: I collected dewdrops from little cowslips this dawn;
wound the flowers round my fingers till they gave sweet
essence to this faerie tea. And leaves of mint and purple
elder berries, my wizard guide.Merwood: How sweet. Your tattered heart mends with every
midnight, faerie!
Foxfires trouble theme:
Merwood: Your strong connection to its spirit. [Accepts tea
from Foxfire.] It has been foretold to me in my dream.
Foxfire: Its always dreams and visions with you, old man.

I need substance. Something I can fight with.
Merwood: [He gives Foxfire a necklace with a stone set in a
spiral woodcarving.] When you hear something is a vision,
you instantly assume it is unreal, but I tell you that the
visions are more real than we are.
Foxfire: Will it keep me out of trouble? Out of traps?
Merwood: Yes, except for the trouble you make for yourself.
[Silence while they listen to morning bird sounds]. Dive
deeper, Foxfire. With imagination you can touch the
mysterious. What gifts befall may be grace, peace, spirit,
prescience. The events of this day attempt to confound our
wisdom. Promise to stay out of trouble, Foxfire?
Foxfire: Unless Im thrown into it, Ill stay out of it.
Robin: We must find a way to keep Sherwood safe.
Merwood: The spirit of the Greenwood is strong.
Foxfire: May the forest be with you.
Robins theme:
Robin: Do I? Well, this is a day like any other.
Merwood: Yes, but it is also a day like none other.
Robin: A day we learned they plan to cut through Sherwood
Forest at dawn.
Moth: Dont say it. When you say it, it makes it come true.
Robin: A day upon which all our hearts depend. We will
carve out our destinies.
Moth: My hearts a flutter!
Robin: Hark! A day Robin and the EcoMystics stopped a road
through the legendary Forest of Sherwood!
[Owl cry: Whoo-Hoo]
EcoMystics exit:
Merwood: What is it, Balthazar? Who comes? [EcoMystics hide
themselves.]
Robins theme:
Robin: Youve given me an idea, Peter, we could invite
everyone to a celebration here tonight. We need more Merry
Humans to stop the road!Peter: Can I wear tights? Could everyone wear tights?
Robin: You could ask.
Moths theme:Moth: [From the tree. Shes been listening.] It will be
bright in the forest tonight. The moon is fully faced!
Merwood: Moth, this is our new companion, Peter. [Peter

does a spit take.]
Moth: [Lowers herself by her silks.] Oh! Are you staying
with us?
Peter: Youre real. I thought you were a fantasy like I was
seeing faeries.
Moth: [Giggles.] Maybe you were. I am fantastical. Want to
come up for tea in my tree house?
Peter: I cant fly like you.
Peters gamer sounds going into Moths aerial danceMerwood: I must contemplate young Peters idea. It has
sparked something in my mind. [Merwood exits into tree
during Interlude. Video game-like images of Peter and the
EcoMystics may appear on the screens. Peter-as-Link chooses
between the weird wizard and the fantastic faerie and
climbs ladder up into tree. Music mimics gamer sounds.]
Interlude 3 Moths Aerial Dance.
[Robin plays a tune on his pipes. The Animal Band plays
with him. Moth aerial dances for Peter. Marian walks on to
this tune.]
Robins song....currently formless could also be performed by the bandand have vocals. The theme should be feed your wild self to continuethe plotline of releasing Peter from his digital cage. Peter can be furtherinvolved since his next move is to refuse at first to come with Wendy.
End of scene 9:
Gliss for MothMoth: Lets! [Coming down] I have some flower garlands Ive
been making. Ill decorate. Is this the lady?
Robin and Marians theme:
Moth: Merwood, come with me. You can wake up while were
walking. [They exit. They can re-enter to set the tea and
hang garlands as Robin and Marian talk.]
Marian: I feel Ive fallen among mad people and the tea
party has yet to begin.
Robin: Would you like to walk with me to the EverlastingWells?
Marian: The little crystal caves? I fell asleep there once
and had an amazing dream.
Robin: Tell me as we walk.
Marian: Do we have time before the tea party?
Robin: Time moves differently at the Wells. We could stay a
year at the Wells and return in the same hour.

Marian: Will you ever leave here?
Robin: If I did, I would miss myself.
Marian: I wonder how it feels to live without crossing a
road.
Robin: It feels like time goes on forever. Time is slow
enough for me to see the Greenwood changing. I have time to
understand who I am.
Marian: My town would miss me, if I left.
Robin: If you came to live wild in the woods?
Marian: [She laughs.] What a thought!
Robin: If the road rips through here tomorrow, Ill choose
to live near the river. Ill be cut off from the Wells.
Marian: This could be your last chance to visit the Wells?
Robin: [Offers his arm.] My first chance to be alone with
you.
Marian: [Laughs] What will that be like?
Robin: Ecstasy?
Marian: How can we stop the road, Robin?
Robin: By clearing the idea of it from of our minds. You
were going to tell me your dream.
Interlude 4 Setting for tea.
[As they exit. Music under. Moth is hanging garlands.
Forest creatures assist in adding vine and flower garlands
to the glade. Her voice can echo through the forest and she
can be off stage by the end of this. Images of the dream
may appear the screens. The Forest creatures may act this
out.]Marian: I had fallen asleep at the Everlasting Wells on a
bank of violets. In my dream, I opened my eyes. The forest
around me had changed. The trees were magnificent, ancient.
I had the feeling I had traveled back in time. I wandered
into town. Everything looked so, was so, natural. A little
village made out of natural materials nestled at the edge
of the forest. The people I met there were happy and
friendly. They seemed too advanced for me to believe I was
in the past. I asked an old man what year it was. He told
me I was in the future. [Echo: the future, the future.]
End Robin and Marians theme.
The theme for the tea party should be a slowed down version
to the frenetic song they will dance to at the end of this
scene and could also be like the ending song that the
audience will dance to. This is modeling for the audience.
The chant the earth the wind the fire the water return

return return and the final chant run a forest through the
town are both possibly reflected in this song. One other
song that could be incorporated in its creation could be To
the Greenwood
[Animal Band plays. The tea is set by Forest creatures. A
short break can be given to the audience especially if they
can be served tea! Merwood practices some enchantments on
the space. The table is a section of a tree set on stumps.]
Merwood: [Music continues.] Come Spirit of the Forest.
Infuse our hearts. Love and life be all. Forest hear my
call.
[Afternoon. Music soft under and in and out through out the
tea party (same theme as the ending song). Moth and Merwood
sit at the table that is spread with fresh berries, edible
flowers, leaves, cheeses, honey and wine. The cups are hand
hewn. Plates are leaves. Moth has flowers in her hair and
places a lay of flowers around Merwoods hat. She gives
similar presents to the other guests as they arrive. The
audience can receive flowers as well.]
The tea party has the animal band playing back ground music
through out and then the ending song comes out of this
softer tune.
Robin and Marians theme:Moth: This is a tea party. [She grabs it from him and he
snatches it back as she looks up to see Robin and Marian
enter dreamily. Moth doesnt need to give them flowersbecause they are wearing theirs already. They put flowers
on the table.]
Foxfire: And the lovely goddess Marian returns. [Pops the
cork.]
The frenetic dance:Guinevere: This is the strangest tea party Ive ever been
to. [Everyone is listening and finding each others eyes
around the table. They begin to connect and flirt with each
other.]
Moth: Free your mind. Open your heart. [Tapping her spoonon her tea cup as the Animal Band matches her mood.] Bring
it up! [The Animal Band begins to play louder. The
characters make rhythmic sounds around the table still
looking at each other.] Give me more! [The music is now
Gypsy punk (Gogol Bordellos sound but also Gaelic).] Dance
it out! [They break out dancing with one another, spinning
and climbing on their stumps and chairs pounding the

rhythm. Guinevere dances with Peter and Merwood. Moth
climbs and flies from her silks. Fox is dancing with Wendy.
Wendy is dancing closest to Moth. Marian and Robin are
dancing in the glade. The band can sing here.]
Moth: Wait! Stop! I see Wendys mind bomb! [She is
looking down on Wendys head. Music stops and then
underscores the following.]
Wendy: What do you see?
dance up again:Foxfire: Well encamp around the bulldozers until trees
grow through the machinery! [Image of Mind Bomb can appear
on screens.]
Guinevere: [Music is coming back up. Dancing with Foxfire.]
Are you always so intense?
[Owl cries three times. Music up and everyone celebrates.
Lance enters.]
Lance: Stop it. Stop the music. Cut it out! Hey! Im the
big man in the forest. I said, No! [As they notice him
they stop dancing, the music winds down,
Robins theme but he is discouraged:Robin: I am master of my own fate. [He stands bangarang
style and then drops his head. He looks up again.]
Guinevere! Im coming with you. [Exit.]
Fight Test by the Flaming LipsRobin could sing this.
Interlude 5 Walking to Guineveres.
[Music. If we see them walking off, they walk slowlylooking around them at everything. Seeing it all alive. The
music is My Lagen Love. And Guinevere sings little rifts
of it as all exit. (Note: It would be awesome to get the
rights to Fight Test by the Flaming Lips and play it here
for the audiences exit.)]
Intermission.
Act II
Scene 1 Wendy and Foxfire greet the cyber audience.Wendy: Hi! Its Wendy your World Wide WatchCat again:

to meet at the Kingson Mansion and then parade to the
construction site. We will bury the bulldozers in nature!
Cover the construction site with flower garlands and tree
branches. This is a non-violent protest. Bring water and
bandanas in case they use tear gas. They say they are
clearing the forest tonight; we say we are celebrating the
forest tonight.
Wendy: This is Foxfire, an activist who has been fighting
the road project. How long have you been here protecting
the forest?
Foxfire: Forever.
Wendy: Do you expect there to be trouble tonight?
Foxfire: Well, the more of us there are, the less likely
well get trapped by the Sheriff.
Wendy: And if the Sheriff traps you?
Foxfire: Ill gnaw my leg off.
Wendy: Come help Foxfire stay out of trouble tonight.
Foxfire: It might get fierce.
Interlude 6
A round of To the Greenwood and something like Following
the Leader from Peter Pan, but it has to be changed or a
giant purple cartoon dragon will singe us from beyond the
sky, just saying.

Scene 4 Marians Update
Marian: [Pause. Forest sounds. Robin alone, meditating.
Owl: Whoo, whoo! Entering. Dressed for the celebration as a
naiad.] Robin?
Merwood: Theyre in here somewhere. [Sounds of things
bashing around inside the tree.] Ill find them.
Merwoods theme:Well put on a show that will catch the conscious of the
counsel.
[Owl: Whoo! Hoo!] I need to scrape off some of my
rustiness. Oh, and the mead. [He looks for the mead. Moth
drops it to him on a tether. He reaches up for it absent-
mindedly as if he expected it to be floating there.] Oh
there you go! Solid as an oak.[Exit into tree with mead.

sing in with Guinevere in harmonies. (Lyrics by Joseph
Campbell, aka Seosamh MacCathmhaoil. Cast may choose to
sing only one verse; may use other versions; may re-write
or alter lyrics; may use other song, if so cut the
reference lines; may have a different character sing, if so
change Merwoods line to asking generally for a love
song.)]
Guinevere:
1*) Where Lagan stream sings lullaby.
There blows a lily fair.
The twilight gleam is in her eye.
The night is on her hair.
And like a love-sick lennan-shee.
She has my heart in thrall.
Nor life I owe nor liberty.
For love is lord of all.
2) Her father sails a running-barge 'Twixt Leamh-beag and
The Druim; And on the lonely river-marge She clears his
hearth for him. When she was only fairy-high Her gentle
mother died; But dew-Love keeps her memory Green on the
Lagan side.
3*) And often when the beetle's horn
Hath lulled the eve to sleep
I steal unto her shieling lorn And thru the dooring peep.
There on the cricket's singing stone,
She spares the bogwood fire,
And hums in sad sweet undertone
The songs of heart's desire4) Her welcome, like her love for me, Is from her heart
within: Her warm kiss is felicity That knows no taint of
sin. And, when I stir my foot to go, 'Tis leaving Love and
light To feel the wind of longing blow From out the dark of
night.
5) Where Lagan stream sings lullaby There blows a lily fair
The twilight gleam is in her eye The night is on her hair
And like a love-sick lennan-shee She has my heart in thrall
Nor life I owe nor liberty For love is lord of all.
[*I recommend verse 1 and 3, only.]
Merwood: No black roads will come to this sacred place.
Moth: This is the realm of footpaths and faeries!
Marian: All of us weave the fabric of reality.
Guinevere: We must trust.
Peter: And act.
Robin: Step into dreamtime. This is the forever moment in
which we live!

Scene 8 The Evil Sheriff Returns
[Owl hoots. Sound of wings flapping. Or Forest Character,
Balthazar the Owl, flies across in alarm.]
Music to score sword play:Scene 9 Sword Fight
Merwood: I was just saying to my tree the other day that I
wanted to see a good sword fight before I die. [Swords
clash.] And since I am not planning on leaving my tree,
that may well be tomorrow. [Owl hoots.]
Moth: The protestors are here in the forest!
Scene 10 and Interlude 8 The Entertainment and Foxfire
Speaks for Forest
[On Merwoods cue, the Animal Band begins to play. And Moth
begins her aerial dance, lit by the cameras spotlight.]
Robin: [Bowing.] Thank you venturing out. The forest needs
you this night.
Marian: For your pleasure, an entertainment, by the
EcoMystics.
Merwood: [Lights flash paper.] The road is an illusion.
Free your minds of it.
Foxfire: Free me!
Peter: [Entering on stilts. He has made a costume change
into Pan. Hes on short stilts designed to look like goat
legs and is shirtless with little horns on his head.
Taunting the audience.] The only thing their minds are free
of is nature. Nature is a drive by for them! They can make
nature out of plastic and watch it on their digital screens
while they eat prepackaged food in their air-conditioned
mansions. [Peter prances over to Foxfire still tied to the
tree.] Nature must be tamed, tied up, imprisoned!
Foxfire: [Looks up into the branches and howls a moaning
fox cry. Merwood throws faerie light on him.] Howl!
Peter: The Forest wants to speak, to be heard.
Foxfire: I speak with the voice of the forest!
Robin: The town wants to run a road through the forest.
What does the forest want?
Foxfire: To run a forest through the town!Robin: Run a forest through the town! Yes, yes! Run a
forest through the heart of the town!!
Merwood: Truly, the Forest has spoken.
Robins theme:Robin: There is law, and there is justice. [Robin has taken
his bow from the bivouac and launches an arrow into the
-
7/31/2019 Flow Document for Sound (1)
14/15
rope that binds Foxfire to the tree. (Robin actually palms
the arrow while the shaft of an arrow is slammed backwards
through the Greenwood tree completing the illusion.)
Foxfire is free, though the rope is still tied to the cuffs
that are dangling from one wrist. Foxfire and Lance face
down each other.]
Lances theme:Merwood: Foxfire! Remember your amulet! [Lance swings at
Foxfire who dodges him capoeira style. Foxfire starts to go
after him.]
Merwood: The Greenwood has need of you. [Foxfire clutches
the amulet around his neck and stops himself. Lance comes
at him again. Foxfire flips landing close to Lance. Lance
grabs for Foxfire who leans back. Lance grabs the amulet
instead. Foxfire falls back onto the ground. Lance looks at
the amulet in his hand. Foxfire spins up toward Lance and
lands back on the ground again. Off balance, Lance staggers
back up against the Greenwood tree still holding the
amulet.]
Merwood: Let it go. [Foxfire stays down. Lance holding the
amulet looks up at the tree.] Let it go.
Lance: [He is weeping.] Go ahead with your celebration,
save this tree, save this forest. [Foxfire picks up an
evergreen tree branch that has been cut for the parade.]
Hey, Forest lover! Come here.
Foxfire: You dont want to play with fire.
Lance: They might fire me, but Im keeping my vow. [He
takes out the key to unlock the cuffs.] No tricks.Foxfire: Unless it gets tricky. [Foxfire holds out his hand
and Lance is kneeling as he unlocks the cuffs. Foxfire
pulls Lance up, and hugs him.]
Merwood: This is what evolvement looks like! [Group hug
around Lance.]
Beginning of the end danceFoxfire: We will swoop down on the machines as though we
were the forest itself. [He leaps and runs with his
branch.]
Wendy: I like this kid, might have to stick around for awhile.
Lance: My head is spinning.
Peter: Youre spun. [He capers around with Foxfire.]
Music is under and then comes up:Wendy: Lets see this forest on the move! [She picks up a
tree branch and skips after Peter and Foxfire.]

Robin: Marian! [They kiss.]
Marian: Forest and River will run together forever.
Robin: Sounds legendary.
Interlude 9 Playing with the Audience
[Animal Band plays. The song is similar to the tea party
dancing song.]
Foxfire: [Leading the chant.] Run the forest through the
town!
All: Run the forest through the town! [Repeat. A song and
chant of Run the forest through the town. Players with
tree branches, drums and instruments enter the audience.
Garlands and small fir branches are passed out to the
audience. All dance and stomp!]
Guinevere: Arthur? Arthur is that you? I saw Arthur.
Cast: [Various] Arthur! Are you Arthur?
Moth: [Pulling possible Arthurs from the audience.] Dance
with us? Wouldnt you rather run a forest through the town?
[The rest of the EcoMystics return to the stage. Moth joins
Merwood, Robin, Foxfire. Peter joins them. The actors
playing Guinevere, Marian, Wendy, and Lance approach the
stage. Song winds down.]
Forest sounds and then silence
