November 2023
A retrospective look back to November 2017… the London, UK workshops for the theatre show ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Is Dead… But Not For Everyone!’. Live over three sold-out nights, the UK Krankenstein Band performed 70’s & early 80’s hard rock covers interpolated with the show’s Two-Act script.
Post-workshop, the theatre script has been fully re-edited and now has original songs throughout with music and lyrics written exclusively for the storyline and characters. First tranche of these original tracks is currently in pre-production; you’ll find song excerpts and more info on our ‘Theatre Show’ page!
