The pounding beat, the thrill of guitars, the legends we can only wonder at: rock music, in its power and promise, has been a myth for our times since it first blazed its trail across the sky.
Professional storyteller Jon Norman-Mason recasts rock legends as the timeless myths they are. Elvis, the Sun King; Patti the Warrior Poet; Tina who Went to Hell and Back; Kurt and Janis, who Flew Too High Too Fast… and always the hordes of young questers, setting out in their wake for more adventure.
Combining soaring storytelling with a full live rock band, Promised Land reimagines the lives of your favourite rock icons as figures from world mythology and folktale. Meet famous names in less familiar faces, share in legends of fable and rock history, and ask what the music really MEANS to us now…
Featuring band members from Robb Johnson & The Irregulars and Shaw's Trailer Park, and the timeless tales of gods, monsters, heroes and outlaws, this is a celebration in words and music of the rock’n’roll myths that bridge the ages. A must for anyone who ever had posters on their walls, played guitar in the mirror, thrilled to the noise and dreamed of freedom!
Audience feedback, Brighton Fringe 2024:
“So good!!! I can’t recommend it enough.” ★★★★★

Alongside Jon, the Ropetackle hosts Amelia Ace Armande, Joshua Crisp and Marina Evans will be sharing short stories about the power of music.
