Rehab The Musical @ Neon 194

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. Its 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. Its 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, Mica Paris, Maiya Quansah-Breed, Jodie Steele, John Barr, Oscar Conlon-Morrey, Simon Shorten, Rebecca Thornhill, Carly Burns, Ben Mabberley and Lucy Sinclair, this is the must-see show of 2024.
