Bremen Rock City
By Colleen Dauncey & Akiva Romer-Segal
BOOK BY SARA FARB
Loosely based on a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, Bremen Rock City follows the story of Jack, a guitar-shredding donkey, who escapes from his boring life on the farm to pursue his dream of becoming a rock star like his idol Spike.
On Jack’s quest he forms a band called The Strays, which includes Duke, a hopelessly muzzled canine drummer; the artistic and sardonic cat, Lex, who plays a fierce bass; and meek baby rooster Simon, with the riff‐tastic voice of an angel(fish). The Strays head Bremen Rock City, where music legends are born! But Jack soon gets swept up in the world of free snacks, hugs, and rock n’ roll, and must decide what’s more important: fame or friendship. Featuring a riotous libretto by Sara Farb and an exuberant pop-rock score by Colleen & Akiva, this show is fun for the whole family.
A NOTE ON CASTING
- Bremen Rock City is designed to be adaptable in terms of casting. Genders of all characters are flexible and may be changed to suit the performers and production needs. For smaller cast sizes, the ensemble roles can be doubled up, and for larger cast sizes the ensemble roles can be split up to give more performers their moment to shine.
- Orchestrated for a 4-piece rock band (piano, bass, drums, guitar). Rehearsal and full-band performance tracks are also available.
