Fasten your seatbelts, return your tray tables to the upright position and prepare to blast off! In this Olivier-award-winning musical, the many works of Shakespeare are aligned with a fabulous rock ‘n’ roll score to create a fun-filled, jiving-in-the-aisles musical.

Loosely based on Shakespeare’s The Tempest and the 1956 sci-fi classic film Forbidden Planet, Return to the Forbidden Planet finds a spaceship, helmed by Captain Tempest, making an emergency landing on the uncharted planet D’Illyria.

Return to the Forbidden Planet is Shakespeare’s unwritten rock ‘n’ roll masterpiece featuring hits of the 50s and 60s -“Great Balls of Fire”, “The Monster Mash”, “Good Vibrations”, and others. Throw in a roller-skating robot, unrequited love, and a scary space monster, and you’ve got one groovy show! Book by Bob Carlton
