Carrollwood Cultural Center and show director Chris Holcom will hold auditions for Return to the Forbidden Planet by Bob Carlton.
Shakespeare’s forgotten rock and roll masterpiece! Inspired by The Tempest, this high-energy jukebox musical is packed with rock ‘n’ roll classics, including “Great Balls of Fire,” “Good Vibrations,” “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood,” “Young Girl” and “Gloria.”
Blast off on a routine flight and crash into the planet D’Illyria, where a sci-fi version of The Tempest – set to rock ‘n’ roll golden oldies – unfolds with glee! The planet is inhabited by a sinister scientist, Dr. Prospero; his delightful daughter Miranda; Ariel, a faithful robot on roller skates; and an uncontrollable monster, the product of Prospero’s id, whose tentacles penetrate the space craft.
Presented through Concord Theatricals.
