Hello, Rock Dojo family and friends! We’re excited to share a major milestone for Rock Dojo. Beyond our award-winning after-school guitar lessons, did you know our very own Guitar Sensei, Brian Parham, is also an award-winning author? Indeed, his Rock Dojo musical, “Six-String Showdown: A Prelude to Elijah & The Sacred Song,” has clinched a Fertile Ground Grow Grant. This win underscores our commitment to inspire and educate through the arts.
Who’s Involved in this Project?
Produced by Rogue Pack Theatre, “Six-String Showdown” combines metal music, martial arts, and fantasy in a musical for kids and families. Jason Weed directs, and metal musician Andrew Stromstad, playing the wicked god of metal music, leads a cast of talented local children.
About the Rock Dojo Musical: “Six-String Showdown: A Prelude to Elijah & the Sacred Song”
When an enigmatic spirit of rock music known as the Guitar Sensei summons Destiny and her younger brother Elijah from the depths of the salt mines where they toil as slaves in an evil empire, they discover a looming threat over their village. Ahriman, the wicked god of metal music, plots its destruction. Their only hope? Outplaying this dark deity in a high-stakes guitar duel. Will they defeat Ahriman in a six-string showdown and save their village, or will his malevolent plan destroy everything and everyone they hold dear?
