A wildly-funny musical about a very serious issue, Rehab the Musical deals with the subject of mental health, fame and addiction, with warmth, compassion, humour and heart.
It’s 1999 and jaded 26- year-old pop star, Kid Pop, finds himself in court, after being caught red handed in a drug fuelled tabloid sting. An understanding judge gives Kid the choice between jail time or a rehabilitation centre for six weeks. It’s a no-brainer for Kid: rehab will be a holiday. But how could he have got it so wrong?
Balancing comedy with the heart-breaking truth that the drugs don’t work, Rehab the Musical will sweep you up on an emotional journey with a stunning musical score that brilliantly accompanies a timeless and universal story about striving to change our lives for the better, and that just for today, we'll be ok.
Starring Keith Allen, Christian Maynard, Maiya Quansah-Breed, Jodie Steele and Oscar Conlon-Morrey with soul legend Mica Paris, this is the must-see show of 2024. Written by Grant Black, Murray Lachlan Young and Elliot Davis and directed by Gary Lloyd.
