DESPITE Covid19 restrictions not being lifted by the Government, on 14 June 2021, a Liverpool rep theatre company are still staging their 1st show in over 16 months. The adult company City Theatre presents a brand new adult comedy show full of singing, dancing and acting. Despite ˝ capacity audiences, the new production will be staged at the Black-E Chamber Theatre, in Liverpool City Centre, over:- Thursday, 24 June 2021 and Friday, 25 June 2021, at 7.30pm on both nights. Bow & Arrow The Outlaws of Sherwood is something for the grown ups and a little light relief during these tough times. Written by Barry Levy, with creative direction by Elle Smith, Bow & Arrow is a comedy performed by local talent who have been worked non stop for the last 5 weeks to bring a little laughter to the vibrant City of Liverpool and the company are excited to be showcasing their abilities in one the toughest genres in theatre... comedy.

The whole cast have many theatre years between them with many of them performing from a young age. Now 26, Lauren Lilly Wotton who is playing the lead role Bow Scar; has been performing since she was 3 years old. Her co-star Johnny Sedgwick Davies has been with City Theatre for nearly three having played the role of Dodge in the gritty play Warnock and Cannon in the family musical adventure Pirates Rock and Pirates Rock 2 The Souls of the Lost.

Having spent most Tuesday evenings on Zoom for over a year reading stage scripts the cast are excited to perform to a live audience once again. Lets be honest nothing beats live theatre. All be it this is a different production that City Theatre are undertaking compared to their past efforts.

Writer and Director Barry Levy stated that:- "This will be the 1st run of this new adults comedy and if the audience enjoy the show and reactions are positive then we are looking to turn it into a touring show. Due to the lockdowns we've actually got several other shows in the pipeline, so either way we've a busy few years ahead, however the main focus is to help rebuild the theatre community in Liverpool. But we are all excited about future opportunities that lie ahead."
