<p>A Kelowna-based rock and roll musical to sweep the stage. <br /> “The play is set in 1958; various musical acts have gathered at the Belgo United Church Hall in Southeast Kelowna to audition for a Dominion Day talent show. The performers are allowed to sing any sort of music they like — any sort of music, that is, except that ‘evil’ rock and roll!” Minions joked. <br /> The show is sure to delight audiences featuring a colorful cast of characters based on 1950s pop culture icons. <br /> “I invented a collection of characters based on thinly disguised 1950s singers — like Frank Sonata, Don Morton, Ella Fitzpatrick, Julie Rutland, Marnie Monroe. I also wove in some local historical references such as the opening of the floating bridge,” Minions said. <br /> Performances of Society for the Prevention of Rock and Roll are taking place at the following times: <br /> Thursday, October 24, 7:00 p.m. <br /> Friday, October 25, 7:00 p.m. <br /> Saturday, October 26, 7:00 p.m. <br /> Sunday, October 27, 2:00 p.m. <br /> All performances will be held at the Okanagan College Theatre (Room S104, 1000 KLO Road, Kelowna). <br /> Tickets are available at www.reddotplayers.com and will also be sold at the door (Cash only, please).</p>
