Keith Moon:  The Real Me

Keith Moon: The Real Me

2nd Stage Theatre
6500 Santa Monica Blvd. Los Angeles

Keith Moon: The Real Me explodes on the stage with the turmoil and excitement of the wildest drummer in rock and roll history. A living legend during his lifetime, Keith Moon still stands as the pinnacle of rock-star extremism — both in life and music. The play — which features live drumming to some of The Who's most iconic recordings — explores the mind of Keith Moon, as he attempts to save himself from the unbearable burden of living up (or down) to his self-created legend of "Moon the Loon." As Keith attempts to save himself, he takes the audience on a journey through his early struggles, his joining The Who, and their rise as one of the world's greatest rock bands. By the show's end, the audience intimately knows the man behind the myth —his acute vulnerability and insecurity, and his struggle to escape the ever-looming rock and roll crash landing.
