Starring Tony nominee Alan Campbell (Sunset Boulevard) and Emmy nominee George Wendt (Norm from Cheers!) as J. Edgar Hoover
The high energy musical drama, Rock and Roll Man: The Alan Freed Story, uncovers the true story of Alan Freed — the Father of Rock and Roll. It’s the 1950s and a cocky young DJ discovers the music that all America wants to hear — except no radio station will play it. Pursued by the notorious J. Edgar Hoover for promoting this unwholesome genre, Alan perseveres — unearthing the sound of a new generation through pure guts, grit, and determination. Featuring original songs and classic tunes by legends like Little Richard, Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis, this world premiere will have you rocking around the clock!
