Stand Tall - A Rock Musical

Work:: Stand Tall (S01095902829)

Based on the biblical tale of David and Goliath but re-told in a current day-to-day setting. Gone is the sling and David now has an electric guitar. The 17 songs range from ? rock to hip-hop and blues. David's life is good - shepherd by day, rock star by night. He and his band of brothers frequently rock out and are adored by thousands. His life however gets complicated when he is proclaimed to be The Chosen One by the mystical Black Sheep. David has been given the honour of becoming King...he's just not sure. This could actually get in the way of his music! Goliath is a bully by day, bully by night! He and his gang of hoods cause mayhem and chaos across town, revelling in their tyranny and ruining the lives of many. Does Goliath like the news that a Shepherd boy is to become his King? No he doesn't. In fact he's angry. No sheep lover is going to tell him how to live his life! Goliath has one thing on his mind and hurting David is it.

Del J: 17Oct11:
I have to be totally honest, I have been going to watch musical theatre for 20 years. Fringe, West End & Broadway. I went to see Stand Tall yesterday and I have to say that this show could be the next big thing in musical theatre. Yes it has more work to be done on it and it is restricted in such a small setting as the Landor, but the show is stunning. A witty and emotive story with amazing songs and lyrics. The cast are growing into their roles and the band especially Dean Austin are superb. I have rebooke

When this aft - lucky to have got a ticket it was full to the brim. I am really glad I went too and won't be forgeting this one anytime soon. My favourite songs - Goliath's Song, Indecisive....all them actually! Totally think everyone check sthis out!!

Tabitha: 15Oct11:
Awesome musical. Simply brilliant songs to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. The Landor is the platform to launch this one way up to where it truly belongs. The actors do a fab job, especially as budgets are always tight for fringe theatre - but with a nil budget this would still win a place in your heart.
