ROCK: The Improvised Rock Opera
Saturdays in May and June
Hideout Theater
The award-winning
producers and improvisers at The Hideout Theatre put their
creative powers to work this May and June for the premier of
their newest production - ROCK: The
Improvised Rock Opera. The
fully-improvised, highly energetic, one-of-a-kind live rock
opera will be created each Saturday night in May and June.
Top musicians and
performers from Austin's immense improv and music scenes will
join forces each week to create an all-singing, all-dancing,
all-original night of comedy and music. The production is
directed by Kacey Samiee - from Girls Girls Girls Improvised
Musicals - and internationally touring musician and composer
Michael Brockman
A rock opera is a
work of rock music that presents a storyline told over multiple
parts, songs or sections in the manner of opera. Each
Saturday night, a new story will be created live on stage with
suggestions from the audience. Most of the weekly rock
opera's dialog will be sung, and all of the show - from music
to lyrics - will be improvised on the spot.
Performances will be
staged on Saturdays at 8 p.m. in May and June. Tickets
are $12 for general admission.
The Hideout Theatre is
located at 617 Congress Avenue in downtown Austin. For
