ROCCOPELLA is a an original one-man musical comedy, co-produced/directed by Thomas Blake and written, performed and co-produced/directed by George Spielvogel, star of the wildly popular Point Break Live!
Rocco is a teenager who dreams of making it big as a recording star. As he is preparing in his bedroom for his “rock debut,” he is visited by zany friends and family (all played by Spielvogel) who take you on a wild journey with laughter, music, and dancing. Eight colorful characters enter his world, joining in with their comical tales and musical antics. Every song is performed A-capella with each character’s own hilarious MTV style music video being shown throughout the show.
George Spielvogel is best known for his role in the underground hit “POINT BREAK LIVE!” as the boisterous Gary Busey character, Pappas, which he has performed through Brooklyn, Manhattan, and here in Los Angeles, where it has been running non stop for three years. He also helped produce and direct the West Coast runs. Over the years he has appeared in feature films and TV shows on both coasts including co-starring with Jeremy Pivens, Jake Gyllenhall, and Jared Leto in “Highway,” and appearing on “Law and Order SVU.”
