From the same producers of Bonnie & Clyde and Cássia Eller – The Musical, this brand-new and original production premieres in March, starring Stepan Nercessian, Bel Moreira, and a stellar cast.

 

Original and entirely Brazilian, The King of Rock – The Musical dives into the fascinating journey of the rock icon, from his first recording at the age of 18 to his untimely death at 42. In a compelling journey through the highs and lows of the artist’s life, this powerful tribute is shaped by deep personal and professional bonds, and driven by a soundtrack full of hits across various genres that defined his career—including rock, pop, country, blues, and gospel. Told in two acts, the story explores pivotal moments alongside essential figures and major influences from American music history.

 

Featuring 15 guest actors and a six-piece live band, Sargentelli shares the stage with familiar names from theater and television, including veteran Stepan Nercessian as the iconic Colonel Tom Parker, Bel Moreira as Priscilla Presley, Danilo Moura as B.B. King, Aline Cunha as Rosetta Tharpe, Stella Maria Rodrigues as Gladys Presley, Romis Ferreira as Vernon Presley, Rafael Pucca as Sam Phillips/Frank Sinatra, as well as Nathalia Serra (Ann Margret), Luiz Pacini (Scotty), Gui Giannetto (Bill), Aquiles (Milton Berle), Rafael de Castro (James), Jéssica Stephens (Penny), and Neusa Romano (Suzie Atkins).
