"Every vision is a joke until the first man accomplishes it; once realized, it becomes commonplace". - Dr. Robert H. Goddard.

The Rocket Man is anything but commonplace, but we do show why he believed people thought his vision was a joke. Come see The Rocket Man at the Museum of Worcester at 2pm on April 11th or 12th. Both shows will be captioned by EYE AUDIO RADIO.

Tickets are available at www.4thwallstagecompany.org.

Great Googly Moogly! You asked and we answered. To coincide with the successful launch of the Artemis II, we've just added 2 more matinee performances for you to catch The Rocket Man. April 11 and 12, both at 2:00pm.

Photo credit for the launch picture is the New York Times, who printed an article saying Goddard didn't understand high school physics when he believed a rocket could function in the vacuum of space. 49 years later, they printed a retraction saying, "The Times regrets the error." Photo credit for the graphic is courtesy of NASA.

Meet the Cast (well, Composer actually): Stephen Murray.

Steve is a composer, lyricist, and playwright who loves telling stories that range from historical exploration to absurd fantasy. He has over 40 published plays and musicals that have been performed in all 50 states and around the world. He's delighted to return to 4th Wall, having previously been musical director for his compositions "Nellie: The Musical" and "Casey at the Bat." He also played a couple of unsavory characters in "Angels and Infidels" at Mechanic's Hall. He recently appeared onstage as Don Quixote in "Man of La Mancha" at Calliope Productions and looks forward to celebrating the 30th anniversary of his popular Teen Musical, "Pom-Pom Zombies" this summer.

Performances of The Rocket Man are March 27th through April 4th. Tickets available at www.4thwallstagecompany.org. This production is a collaboration with Museum of Worcester and was commissioned with a generous grant from the Worcester Arts Council and the Mass Cultural Council.

Who remembers playing with one of these as a child? And what does that have to do with 4th Wall? Robert Goddard hypothesized that he could control direction in one of his rockets using a gyroscope. And sure enough, he developed and successfully used his gyro control apparatus in 1932. Come see The Rocket Man for more details. Shows are March 27 through April 4 at Museum of Worcester. Tickets available at www.4thwallstagecompany.org

The headshots for our cast were expertly done by Worcester Headshots. By night, Eric is our Technical Director, but by day he's a Commercial Photographer who does fabulous work. His Union Street Studio is located here in downtown Worcester and he's an expert at making you feel at ease. 10/10 would recommend.
