Rover to Present ROCKET MAN

Rover Dramawerks continues their SWEET 16 Season with the serious comedy Rocket Man, by Steven Dietz. Performances will be at Rover's theatre in Plano, located in Ruisseau Village at 221 W.

Somewhere in the universe is a place where all the roads we never chose converge. Donny (played by J.R.

The talented ensemble cast also includes Melissa Hartman Couture as Donny's wife, Melissa LeCompte as his former co-worker, Shelby Scott as his daughter, and Robert Shores as his best friend Buck.
