Rock 'n Roll

By Tom Stoppard
Directed by Paul Draper
March 25-April 2, 2010 in Evert B. Person Theatre

Have you ever loved someone... but hated what they believed in?

Tom Stoppard is one of the world¹s greatest living playwrights, and Rock ŒN¹ Roll is his ultimate mash-up: from the Prague Spring of 1968 to the Berlin Wall in 1989, from Pink Floyd to the Velvet Underground, from the intoxication of Sappho¹s poetry to the yearning call of a mysterious Piper perched in a moon-drenched tree.
