Rock & Roll Man

Rock & Roll Man is the original musical about a musical original.
Alan Freed was a Cleveland DJ who heard the future and knew he had to let it sing. He named the genre “Rock & Roll”, bringing music to the masses. Along the way, he became an icon to the nation’s youth, and a target for the nation’s establishment.
Enjoy explosive original songs written just for the stage, alongside classics from legends such as Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Jerry Lee Lewis, and The Drifters. Revel in genre-defying hits like Tutti Frutti, Great Balls of Fire, Yakety Yak, and Why Do Fools Fall in Love.
Freed’s passion for music inspired the generation that changed society forever.
