The Legend of Robin Hood opens in one week!!! And meet the man responsible for this madness:

Nathan Makaryk, above all other things, hates writing bios about himself.

Nathan's debut novel NOTTINGHAM was released in August 2019 by Tor/Forge (US) and Bantam (AUS), and its sequel LIONHEARTS followed in September 2020.

Nathan is a theater owner, playwright, director, actor and improv comedian, living in southern California. None of these pay very well, so he also has a real job teaching audio systems networking software to people who have no idea he's also a novelist and theater guy.

He likes dogs and scotch because of course he does.

And he's going to be with us on Saturday, Sept 12th, for a talk back and sit down with all of you to enjoy all your questions on this process.

tickets available at ronintheatreco.net and buy them now before they're stolen right from under you ;)

The time has finally come! The call is made for the last Ronin show of 2026. Join us and welcome the arrival of something holly, jolly... and every bit naughty ;)
