Rock-Ola

By Tim Gooding

10 February 1978 – 04 March 1978 Playbox Theatre

Hoopla Theatre Foundation,

Music Theatre Musical

A nostalgic musical celebration of the 1950's rock and roll era. Four 50's rockers struggle to adapt to the social changes of the late 1970s, and are forced to deal with thwarted expectations borne of a more optimistic era.

Originally workshopped as part of the 1977 National Playwrights' Conference.
