I’ve posted here several times over the years about Rocket Boys the Musical, which is based on Homer Hickam‘s famous Rocket Boys book (later the movie October Skys) about his building and flying rockets as a youth in a small coal mining town in the post-Sputnik period. The musical still hasn’t made it to Broadway but it seems to be a regular production in West Virginia: ‘Rocket Boys’ set to begin run Thursday –  The Register-Herald, Beckley, West Virginia

It will play August 15-25 at the Theater West Virginia – Cliffside Amphitheatre.  More at Rocket Boys: The Musical – Cliffside Amphitheatre
