Rock of Ages has received rave reviews, but time is running out to see what all the hype and fuss is about.
The final performances are on tonight and tomorrow night
followed by a Saturday matinee show ahead of the grand finale that night.
Rock of Ages is an exciting
production packed with singing and dancing and fabulous costumes in a performance which takes the audience back to the 1980s.
Stars of the show are Stephanie Rose Wait and Henry Paul. Their tumultuous love story weaves its way through the plot.
They are backed up by John Myers and Kylie Martinez, all ably supported by a great ensemble cast.
The show is directed by Benny Hope and, assisted by Jena Shaw they have also undertaken sound production, lighting and publicity.
The storyline goes back to 1987 on the Sunset Strip where a small town girl meets a big city rocker and, in LA’s most famous rock club, they fall in love to the greatest songs of the ’80s.
These include hits such as Journey, Night Ranges, Styx, Reo Speedwagon, Pat Benatar, Twisted Sister, Poison, Asia, Bon Jovi, Foreigner and Whitesnake.
Rock of Ages takes you back to the times of big bands with big egos playing big guitar solos and sporting even bigger hair.
