Director Kristin Hanggi’s five-time Tony Award-nominated musical fuses Broadway with famous '80s hair metal in a heartfelt hair-metal jukebox production following two young adults as they move from the Midwest to the rockin’ clubs of Sunset Boulevard.

Rock of Ages features Drew, a boy from South Detroit, and Sherrie, a small-town girl from Kansas, both in Los Angeles to chase their dreams of one day taking the stage like their rock star music idol, Stacee Jax. After a tumultuous struggle to keep a famous rock 'n’ roll club open, the ambitious young dreamers begin to question whether fame and fortune actually lead to happiness.

Rock of Ages is like a music video brought to life, complete with electrifying dancers and blazing guitar licks. The musical score, under the supervision of Ethan Popp and David Gobbs, compiles 30 of the era’s best songs, including Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin,” Twisted Sister’s “We’re Not Gonna Take It,” and Europe’s “The Final Countdown.”

Audience members will feel like part of the musical and might just find themselves singing along to the music!
