Arts Alive will debut the Rock n’ Roll Jubilee at the Robinson/Olsson Auditorium in West Point on Saturday, Feb. 27, 2016.

The Rock n’ Roll Jubilee is a musical and theatrical performance that channels the spirits of the founding fathers of the genre, presented in the context of a live 1958 broadcast on fictitious WJKS radio. The show combines the theatrical elements of the Grand Old Opry, the sensibilities of the Prairie Home Companion, and the excitement generated by the founding fathers of rock as they barnstormed across America.

The show features music from the Titans of Teen Town: Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, The Everly Brothers, and Ricky Nelson.

Show time is 7 p.m. Cost is $25/adult, $20/senior (65+), and $10/student. Group rates are $15 each for groups of 10 or more.

Tickets may be purchased by calling 843-3475, emailing artsaliveinc@yahoo.com or visiting www.artsaliveinc.org.
