Direct from New York, the electrifying smash hit musical, Rock & Roll Man premieres in the UK this spring.
Go behind the golden era of rock & roll music and inside the story of Cleveland DJ Alan Freed, in this feel-good musical. Re-live the drama, passion and excitement as the radio sensation from Ohio played a new sound over the airwaves and called it rock & roll – a craze that swept the nation and changed the course of music history.
Featuring a multi-talented cast of actors and musicians, revel in original songs and genre-defying hits like Tutti Frutti, Great Balls of Fire, Yakety Yak and Why Do Fools Fall in Love from legends Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis and The Drifters.
Guaranteed to have you rockin’ & rollin’, join us as we celebrate Freed’s unbelievable passion and quest to bring music to the masses!
Following the hit New York run, Wiltshire Creative is thrilled to be working with American producers to bring this explosive original musical to UK audiences for the first time.
With a powerful story and a score packed with toe-tapping tunes, Rock & Roll Man promises an unforgettable and uplifting evening.
Presented by Wiltshire Creative, Rose Caiola for Caiola Productions and Julian Bird for Green Room Ents Ltd
