Rasputin Rocks!

An exciting new rock musical by Andrew Hobbs and Alistair Smith. Set in Russia in the near future, it features an insane Russian Emperor who, having been diagnosed with a terminal illness, decides to take the whole world with him in a global nuclear dawn. He has also discovered that the legendary Rasputin has never in fact died, but after his would be assassins failed to kill him, they instead chose to freeze him in a vast underground icy prison, which the Emperor has now located and released him from to aid him in his evil plan. Only hero of the free world Tony Blair and a group of revolutionaries obsessed with the cheesier aspects of Western culture stand between them and armageddon. All this happens to a soundtrack of classic rock, with a little doo-wop, Russian death metal and of course some good old musical theatre thrown in for good measure. 

Following two well received preview concert nights at London's trendy Wilmington Arms, this show had its world premiere at the Kenton Theatre, Henley-on-Thames as one of the headline attractions of the inaugural Henley Fringe Festival in 2008.

We are currently working on bringing Rasputin Rocks! to the London stage for a big production in 2011 and for this we need your help. Camden Council have launched an exciting new website to help independent theatre producers get funding for their projects and you can check out Rasputin Rocks! on there right here:

www.camdentheatres.com

You can give as little as £25 towards the show's production budget and in exchange for that you'll get free VIP tickets to the show when it comes on (two of which will cost at least £30 so you've saved yourself a fiver already!), invites to some of the best parties that showbiz has to offer, and the opportunity to be involved in the production at every stage. Have a look and please help us out if you can - this is 100% original British rock musical theatre and it's very hard to get funding for a show if it's not based on a film or well known pop songs (although we've got Tony Blair singing Pulp's Common People if that counts...?)

For more info on Rasputin Rocks, please visit the show's MySpace site www.myspace.com/rasputinrocksthemusical  where you can also hear some of the songs.

Bacchus In Rehab

A brand new comedy romp by Andrew Hobbs and S P Howarth.

Stitched up by his nemesis Hades, ancient Greek god of wine Bacchus is finally expelled from Mount Olympus by Zeus for his debauched behaviour and is forced to give up drinking as he seeks a new purpose in his life in order to reclaim his throne among the gods. He meets a crowd of hopeless drunks, and helps to turn their lives around as he ponders his own libertine lifestyle and finds redemption through theatre and the woman he loves. Meanwhile Hades attempts to prevent his foe from achieving happiness by collaborating with killjoy civil servant Doris on what turns out to be the world's least funny comedy in an attempt to defeat him at Bacchanal playwriting competition 'The Omega Factor'.

The show combines highbrow concept with lowbrow humour, and is packed with laughs as well as a psychotic clown, a watchman unleashing his theatrical masterpiece by wrestling with a rubber hydra, and at its heart a moving story of redemption and love.

Bacchus In Rehab had its world premiere at the Etcetera Theatre, Camden in November and December 2009 and will be returning to the London stage shortly.
