Imagine All the People: A Survey of Music Business Creeps

About This Show

This solo character show, written and performed by Eli James, is a decade-by-decade journey through the parade of unsung deplorables who inhabit the history of rock ‘n’ roll. Imagine All the People: A Survey of Music Business Creeps shines a light on the creeps, freaks, jackasses, and wannabes that have been steadily plopping out of pop music’s bottom since the 1950s. In it, award-winning music historian Sir Gordon Gledhill-Walker guides audience members through each sordid era of rock, attempting to find answers to pop music’s longest-lasting mysteries, such as “Were the Beatles more popular than Jesus?”, “What is payola and where can I get it?”, and “Why did the ’90s happen?” Visits from con artists, Klansmen, and Morrissey are to be expected. It’s all here when you imagine all the people!
