Robbie’s earliest memory was that he wanted to be a songwriter, like his father, uncle and grandfather before him. Robert J. Sherman was born in Los Angeles, California in 1968. The fourth child of Joyce and Robert B. Sherman, Robbie stems from a long, illustrious line of songwriters and composers. At 16 he became one of the youngest songwriters ever to join BMI (Broadcast Music, Incorporated). He is also an alumnus of the BMI Lehman Engel Musical Theatre Workshop. At 18 Robbie wrote songs for the musical A Christmas Held Captive (Beverly Hills Playhouse) and has subsequently written songs and/or scripts for various film, stage and TV productions including: The Adventures of Amazon Jack (Columbia Tristar), The Magic 7 (Pulse Entertainment), The Penguin Pirate and Inkas the Ramferinkas (an animated musical). In 2015, his musical Love Birds premiered at the Edinburgh Festival and in 2016 Bumblescratch made its staged concert debut at the Adelphi Theatre in London. In 2018, his show A Spoonful of Sherman toured the UK and Ireland visiting 25 cities across the British Isles. Upcoming musical projects include: Robert J. Sherman’s The Magic Flute and Strange Gods. In 2021 Robbie founded Sherman Theatrical Entertainment alongside Andrew Kaplan and Bret Goldin with an eye to bringing his and his family’s theatrical musicals to the UK stage and beyond. Robbie resides in London, England.
