On Friday, Oct. 22, the Traveling Lantern Theatre Co. pre-sents “The Merry Tales of Robin Hood” at 3 p.m. in the Community Room. This story is “the exuberant tale of intrepid Robin Hood and his Merry Men, who are ever jauntily escaping from the clutches of the ill-disposed Sheriff of Nottingham,” says www.travelinglantern.com.
