“Robin Hood fans, hold onto your quivers – because “The Legend of Robin Hood” spins a whole new tale more intricate yet more realistic than anything seen before. Suffice it to say that this swashbuckling production has it all – colorful and absorbing characters, compelling ideas, and enough laughs, tears, physical action and dramatic plotting to satisfy anyone. … [The Legend of Robin Hood] offers a pulse-pounding yet meditative version showing how the medieval English hero became a legend.”
- - Eric Marchese, The Orange County Register
“As a writer, Makaryk deserves high praise. This is a very thoughtful, well-developed play that doesn’t support one cause. There are no polemics here; every character is flawed, every argument has some merit. And, most insightfully, it’s usually when the players do something they think is right that all hell breaks loose.”
- - Joel Beers, The OC Weekly
“The real nugget of this play is the story. In this ambitious work, Nathan Makaryk has crafted a tale that seems more like a Greek tragedy than medieval folklore, and he has done it with the subject matter of modern politics. All of the main characters, even the villains, are deeply developed.”
- - Mark Stouffer, The Fullertonian
“As implied in the title, this is about legends and how they are made … it underlies the basic point writer and director Nathan Makaryk is trying to make in what is ultimately the great strength of the production, his script.”
- - Shawn Price, Coast Magazine
