"This is a production I've been wanting to do for a long time," Rock Alnight, the show's playwright says. "Whenever I've heard an artist I like, I'm fascinated to find out how they were influenced, where they got it from. Then, once I find out, I'm just as intrigued to find out who influenced that artist, and so on and so on. Ghosts of Rock really is a product of that passion of mine. Rock and Roll is a blast and that's what I want the whole experience to be, from the start to the epic finish."

Ghosts of Rock is an Epic Rock and Roll Journey:It's 1980 and Rock is in Trouble! The Rock Gods (Jimi Hendrix, along with Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin) look down and see peril with the coming of the 80's electric pop scene. Case and Point - the BellBottoms, a very talented but misguided boy band, controlled by the corporate music machine that shelters them from all things Rock and Roll.
The Rock Gods must intervene before it's too late. They send in The Ghosts of Rock. The BellBottoms are visited by 3 Ghosts of Rock - Past, Present and Future. They merge with the spirits of blues and rock legends from Muddy Waters to Chuck Berry to Led Zeppelin and ride a fast-track to the rock and roll mileage they desperately need.
The question is, will they be inspired to break away from the corporation… and Rock?
You have to come to the show and find out!
