Cruisin (Premiere)

Cruisin’ is an exciting musical filled with comedy, pathos and catchy musical numbers with songs in the style and spirit of the pioneers of rock 'n roll. It tells a vibrant, energetic and engaging musical story that follows Vinnie Russo, a young Italian kid as he struggles to escape from his Papa's expectations, to take his place in the modern 1950's world of motorbikes, rock and roll - and girls! Principals : 5m, 4f Support : 3m, 5f (plus myriad cameo parts & large chorus) The premiere pro-am production here took place in 2007. Following this production a number of script and song changes were made to reduce the running time and tighten the action (notably the removal of 'Volare' from the Act One wedding scene).
