Overview

Return To The Forbidden Planet
Book by Bob Carlton
Music & Lyrics by Various Artists
Directed by Steve Vaughan
Music Directed by Joe Isgar
Choreography by Terri Filips Vaughan


Return with us to the 1950s, when Sci-Fi movies echoed the American post-war fear of the Russians, fear of the Atomic Bomb, fear of nefarious Mad Scientists whose experiments could result in giant monster bugs or mutated humans. And the one thing Americans feared more than all of the others: Rock & Roll…  Loosely inspired by Shakespeare’s The Tempest, this high-energy jukebox musical is packed with rock classics that will have you dancing in your seats, including “Great Balls of Fire,” “Good Vibrations,” “Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood,” “Young Girl” and “Gloria.”
