ABOUT THE SHOW

Set in 1987 on Hollywood’s infamous Sunset Strip, "ROCK OF AGES" tells the story of Drew, a boy from South Detroit, and Sherrie, a small-town girl chasing her dreams of stardom. 

When their paths collide at the legendary Bourbon Room, sparks fly, but their love and ambitions are tested as the Strip faces destruction from greedy developers determined to silence the music. 

Bursting with heart, humor, and pure rock ‘n’ roll energy, this high-octane musical features the iconic hits of Bon Jovi, Journey, Foreigner, Poison and more. 

"ROCK OF AGES" is a larger-than-life celebration of love, music, and the wild spirit of the 1980s that will have audiences singing along and ready to rock all night!
