Cast announced for ‘Rock & Roll Christmas Tale’

August 1, 2014

Christmas-Tale-700x400Broadway In Chicago announces the casting and creative team for the world premiere of Dee Snider’s Rock & Roll Christmas Tale, written by and starring iconic rocker Dee Snider, directed by Adam John Hunter and produced by John B. Yonover, in association with Vicki and Bob Liggett, Charles Brennan and Mary and John Cooper.

The production will play the Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place, 175 E. Chestnut, Chicago, Nov. 4 through Jan. 4, 2015.

Snider, of Twisted Sister fame, will play the role of narrator accompanied by the cast of Chicagoans including Bill McGough, Adam Michaels, Christina Nieves, Dan Peters, Wilam Tarris, Keely Vasquez, Taylor Yacktman and Milwaukee native Tommy Hahn.

Christmas Tale is choreographed by Robert Tatad, with music supervision and arrangement by Doug Katsaros. The production features scenic design by Rob Bissinger, costume design by Suzette Guilot-Snider, lighting design by Heather Gilbert and sound design by Nevin Steinberg.

It’s the story of Däisy Cütter, a heavy metal bar band looking to make it big even though the ’80s are long over. This year, these four guys are ready to take the ultimate step and, in mythic rock tradition, sell their souls to the devil in exchange for success beyond their wildest metal dream.! But every time they try to seal the infernal pact, their head-banging anthems turn into warm-hearted carols. Soon these rockers are forced to realize their dreams of stardom are no match for the Christmas spirit.

Ticket information is available at www.BroadwayInChicago.com.
