    This is a totally original musical called HELLS REBELLION! It is a massive musical with every style of music genre,

    The first half is mainly child-teen actors/esses! Ages vary (4-17)
    There is also 32 adults

    Then the second half is all adults! Age 18 - ??


    Musicians
    : Of any age!
    Firstly we need a group of basic band musicians.

    Secondly
    we need to put together an Ochestral group. This is set on being Drogheda's ochestra and will hopefully continue beyond this musical! (Maybe just a 16 piece to start with)


    The behind the scenes people are the stage desigers, the make-up artists, the riggers (For the microphones, ect...) + various other jobs!:)

    This is going to be hard to sync it all together, but it is going to be so enjoyable! :D
    Right, SLANIO!

    All Shook Up is a new musical comedy built around a number of songs made famous by Elvis Presley. It's NOT a biographical revue. It takes place in 1955, somewhere in middle America, where one girl's dream and a surprise visit from a mysterious leather-jacketed, guitar-playing stranger help a small town to discover the magic of romance and the power of rock & roll. Among the 24 songs featured in the score are classics like "Heartbreak Hotel," "Love Me Tender," "Don't Be Cruel," "Can't Help Falling in Love," and of course the title tune.
