The Heart of Rock and Roll Jr.

The Broward Center has been selected by Musical Theater International (MTI) to produce the first ever pilot production of The Heart of Rock and Roll JR. Our students will be among the first in the country to perform this brand-new JR version of the Broadway musical prior to its official release.

Feel the power of love in this jukebox musical featuring the songs of the legendary pop rock band Huey Lewis and the News. The Heart of Rock and Roll is a smart, funny, heartfelt throwback to the era of big feelings, classic rom-coms. Set in 1987 and jam-packed with Huey Lewis’ megahits such as “Do You Believe in Love,” “Hip to Be Square” and “If This Is It,” The Heart of Rock and Roll centers on a couple on the cusp of their futures — Bobby, a rock and roller who’s traded his guitar for the corporate ladder, and his boss, Cassandra, who has always put the family business first. When they both get a second shot at their dreams, it takes “The Power of Love” and a little help from their friends to figure out what kind of life they really want.
