This summer's walkabout theatre show in Williamson Park in Lancaster has been exclusively announced on Central Radio.

This year the park will be transformed into Sherwood Forest for the much-loved Robin Hood brought to you by The Dukes theatre.

The Dukes' annual Park Show began in 1987 and traditionally pulls crowds of thousands to performances over the summer.

This will be a brand new version of Robin Hood, written especially to be performed outdoors in Williamson Park. 

"Robin Hood is perfect for the outdoor setting," said Chris Lawson, CEO of The Dukes, speaking on the Central Breakfast show on Friday morning.
