The Rochester Civic Theatre is proud to present: Return to the Forbidden Planet. Blast off on a routine flight and crash into the planet D’Illyria – where a sci-fi version of The Tempest set to rock and roll golden oldies unfolds with glee. This winner of an Oliver Award for Best Musical mixes one part Shakespeare’s The Tempest, one part 1950s B movie fave The Forbidden Planet, and healthy handfuls of vintage rock and roll standards like “Wipe Out,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Who’s Sorry Now,” “Born to Be Wild,” and many, many more. Prepare to dance in the aisles as you experience this irresistible retro-radioactive cult sensation send up of a sci-fi drive-in opus!
