A-WOP BOP A-LOO BOP

Directed by Nikki Gray
Musical Direction by Davina Melanson
Choreographed by Charlotte Cameron

A-Wop Bop A-Loo Bop takes us back to the late 1950’s as Rock & Roll is taking the airwaves by storm. Roberta "Ruby" Lester and her friends are spunky teenagers with dreams of making it big in the music business. But sometimes dreams don’t go as planned. When the local radio station announces that “Rock‘n’Roll has got to go”, the kids take a stand for the music they love.

Book by Mark Brymer and John Jacobson
