Rock & Roll Rehab To Premier At The Historic Hayworth Theater

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Los Angeles, California, United States of America (Free-Press-Release.com) January 8, 2012 -- Los Angeles’ historic Hayworth Theater located at 2511 Wilshire Blvd. is presenting the new live musical comedy Rock & Roll Rehab on January 21 at 8:00 PM. Free special previews start Jan 7.

Rock & Roll Rehab stars Gregory Piper whose previous show, the John Lennon based Just Imagine, had a successful six month run at the Hayworth and is expected to return in February. Until then, anyone seeking a fix for his or her rock music addiction can find help at the “meeting” of Rock & Roll Rehab, a satirical self help group featuring the testimonial of Piper, a true lifelong rock musician and hard core music fan.

All original music performed live by the L.A. band, The Tooners, Rock & Roll Rehab explores the myths and urban legends of the Classic Rock era illustrated with animated music videos, cartoons and hilarious illustrations using large screen video projection.

Written and directed by Neal Warner, a former animator and director of animated television series for studios such as Disney TV, Klasky Csupo and Fred Wolf Films, among others, Rock & Roll Rehab is a colorful, fast paced, extremely funny and somewhat psychedelic experience perfect for those old timers wanting to relive their rock & roll past or for young people curious about an increasingly mythologized bygone era.

The trio of live musicians are lead by host and narrator Piper who adds a aura of authenticity as he not only knows the Classic Rock era and its music but actually lived it. The son of the couple who created the television game show, Concentration, and a professional musician in cover bands and Beatles tribute acts he is an engaging character that seems a bit of a cross between Alice Cooper, Rod Serling and Pee Wee Herman.

Rock & Roll Rehab is based on the book, The Official Rock & Roll Rehab Handbook and the abridged version, The Official Rock & Roll Rehab Members Guide by Neal Warner available on Amazon.com and as an eBook for Kindle.
