About

Rock of Ages takes you back to the time of big bands with big egos playing big guitar solos and sporting even bigger hair!

This Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical features the hits of bands including Night Ranger, REO Speedwagon, Pat Benatar, Twisted Sister and more. 

It's the 1980s in Hollywood at one of Sunset Strip's last legendary venues, a place where rock god Stacee Jaxx takes the stage and groupies line up to turn their fantasies into reality. Aspiring rock star (and resident toilet cleaner) Drew longs to be the next big thing (and for small-town girl Sherri, fresh off the bus from Kansas with stars in her eyes). But the rock 'n' roll fairy tale is about to end when developers sweep into town with plans to turn the fabled Strip into another shopping mall. Can Drew, Sherri and the gang save the strip – and themselves – before it's too late?
