Pub Rock is performed in real time with live versions of pub rock favourites included in the show, Pub Rock tells the story of One Trick Pony, a band that have been together since school, a typical covers band who play all the classic songs. But tonight Richie the guitarist wants to play his own experimental, original material. As much live gig as theatre show, Cartoon de Salvo s groundbreaking, genre-bending, site-specific show demonstrates that experimental theatrical adventures are not confined to city centres or traditional theatre spaces. Pub Rock debuted at a pub near the Lyric Hammersmith in London in early 2010, but has been especially reworked for the rural pub venues it will play as part of the tour. The Pub Rock tour has been commissioned by the Arts Council and the National Rural Touring Forum as part of an initiative looking at bringing new kinds of work to rural locations beyond the traditional setting of the village hall.
