Description

Hilarious epic 50s rock musical following Shakey Sean (Elvis character) working in an Arbroath egg’n’roll van. A customer asks for a 'rock’n’roll'. Shakey concedes he doesn't sell this, spurring the invention of rock’n’roll. Shakey decides to change his egg’n’roll van into a rock’n’roll van, hitting the road, chasing dreams of becoming a rockstar. Hopes are tested by a virus: The Shakey Shakey Hips. Shakey must save the world, get to his rock’n’roll shakedown in Las Vegas and beat evil Elvis – Johnny B Bad – in a hard rock battle!

Tragic. Just don’t waste your time or money. One of the poorest shows I have seen for a long time. A couple of the performers have some talent but wasted in this.

We saw this happy musical yesterday. The cast were great and the music was fabulous. We smiled and laughed all the way through. Sean has real star quality.
