Rock like an Egyptian! Cinderella's tale transformed with a rockin' Egyptian beat at KUDOS Children’s Theatre Company.
Overview
A girl, a Fairy Rockmother and an electric guitar. It’s a new look (and sound) for an old tale set against the backdrop of Ancient Egypt. Pyramid Rocks! is a pop rock musical with a twist on the Cinderella story.
Shemayet is a girl brought up in the fields who loves music, a skill which doesn’t impress the landowner and her three daughters who treat her as a servant. In her despair, Shemayet meets Fairy Rockmother, who gets her going on a barge headed for the palace to play in a music contest for the Pharaoh.
Pyramid Rocks! turns out to be a “show within the show” with lively dancing and singing numbers, a bizarre plot to undo the Pharaoh, and the discovery of Shemayet shredding the golden electric guitar to win it all.
The production will be held at KUDOS Theatre, 1943 W. Lucile Ave
