" A Rock musical.. and a great one at that!" - Curtain Up New York

Come join the vestige group as they produce their first ever Rock and Roll Musical - Gorilla Man - Book, Music and Lyrics by Kyle Jarrow!

Waking one morning to find thick fur growing on the backs of his hands, young Billy discovers the awful truth his mother has been hiding from him for 14 years. Cast from his home, he sets out on a journey to find his father, the legendary Gorilla Man. Gorilla Man is a darkly comic coming-of-age Rock and Roll musical that explores issues of violence, identity, and free will against the backdrop of a warped American landscape. Filled with jarring political references, societal prejudices, a lot of fur and lyrics that will make you rock out in the car on the way home from the theatre- Gorilla Man is a must see! Starring Kathleen Fletcher ( B. Iden Payne Winner,) Jen Brown (B. Iden Payne nominee,) Bobby Torres, Spencer Driggers, Benjamin Wright and Andrew Varenhorst. Directed by Susie Gidseg and Jen Brown.

Rock and Roll Band: Brian Purington, Vince Durcan , and lead by Henna Cho.
Musical Direction: Benjamin Wright
