Rock n Roll Ghost Story

You know what they say about brothers: the bond between them is unbreakable. Sam and Alex shook the nation with their rock band 'The Revelation', making an album (and a half), and playing close to sold out gigs in their hometown. Things didn’t end too well with the brothers. They split almost two decades ago and entered a new phase of their careers: paranormal investigators, establishing a somewhat popular online TV program called ‘Ghost Trappers’. After some time, Sam’s paranoia and delusions put an end to their paranormal careers.

'Rock 'n' Roll Suicide' is an absurdist two-hander exploring the themes of paranoia, isolation, delusion and the paranormal. The play circles around a former superstar and rock and roll icon, Sam Strange. Since the bands break-up, Sam has become somewhat of a recluse, and Alex has gone missing.

It is evening in Sam’s living room. His only communication with the outside world is social media, mainly ‘X’ (formerly ‘Twitter’), where he communicates with fans. This night, however, is the real ‘revelation’. What really happened to Alex? Why has Sam been such a recluse over the past few years? Why the urgent need to tell his ‘X’ followers now?

When fantasy turns into reality, his world topples over, and hiding is no longer an option.
