About
“Rockquiem” is a rock musical about a champion wrestler. The plot centers around the revisiting of his past as if “wrestling” with the duality between the quest for success and fame and the price he paid for it. He recounts his pursuit beginning from youth to his days as a reckless teenager ending up an ex-convict to his crazy days as a wrestler leading to his struggle with alcohol and drugs and ultimately his choice for recovery. The play explores the social impact of Entertainment Wrestling in an age when the public’s hunger, thirst, and fascination for spectacle entertainment and reality TV has become obsessive and insatiable. The action moves forward to flamboyantly and spiritedly dramatize his life encompassing the dangerous, absurd and often tragic lives of wrestlers within the world of Entertainment Wrestling often transporting the audience to being at a Rock Concert.
