SUMMARY:Marie and Rosetta
DESCRIPTION:Before Little Richard\, Johnny Cash\, and Jimi Hendrix\, Sister Rosetta Tharpe’s groundbreaking blend of gospel music\, swing rhythms and fierce electric guitar made her an unconventional music superstar in the 1930s and 40s. Acclaimed writer George Brant (“Grounded”) unearths the unsung roots of the fearless “Godmother of Rock ’n’ Roll” and her wide-eyed protégée Marie Knight\, as they begin their revolutionary ascent to become one of the most influential teams in music history. Starring Rep favorites Alexis J Roston (“Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar & Grill\,” “Nina Simone: Four Women”) and Bethany Thomas (“Ragtime\,” “Hedwig and the Angry Inch”) and featuring a rich mix of songs from the early days of rock ’n roll\, this magnetic play with music is a sure-fire can’t-miss show. \nBy George Brant\nDirected by E. Faye Butler \n
