ROCKY - The Musical, featuring Drew Sarich and Wietske van Tongeren, made its world premiere in Hamburg this Winter. Hear what the cast and creative team have to say about the show below!
Rocky tells "the rags-to-riches American Dream story of Rocky Balboa, an uneducated but good-hearted debt collector for a loan shark in Philadelphia. Balboa is also a club fighter who gets a shot at the world heavyweight championship when the scheduled contender breaks his hand." The original Rocky film sparked five sequels.
The musical adaptation held a reading last year prior to a planned Broadway run; the show is produced by Stage Entertainment, which also produced the German productions of TARZAN, THE LION KING and SISTER ACT.
