This is a great, fun show which will delight any fan of ’80s rock and metal music, and take you back to relive it in all it’s glory. It makes the most of the ’80s era attitudes and stereotypes to recreate the rock scene as it was back in the day.

The performances are fantastically over the top, and the show is absolutely full of energy. Some of the songs are less well known, but ‘We Built This City’, ‘Here I Go Again’ and the finale ‘ Don’t Stop Believin’ are songs that we all know.

Rock of Ages Tower Records Clip Julianne Hough and Diego Boneta sing a mash-up of Jukebox Hero and I Love Rock and Roll in this scene from Adam Shankmans hard rock musical. The story is narrated by Lonny (Lucas Rush) who also plays the entertaining club host, and expertly hangs together the songs to keep the story moving. Regina (Rhiannon Chesterman) who works the mayors office is sacked for trying to stand up to them and then attempts to pull the Sunset strip community together to stop them demolishing the club. They bribe the City Mayor and the re-development is kick started with a suitcase full of dollars. The club where they are both working to try to pay the rent, is under threat of closure from the ambitious Father and Son, Franz (Andrew Carthy) and Hertz (Vas Constanti). They hit it off, but Drew misses his chance to score with Sherrie, instead she gets seduced by the rock star every woman wants and who every man wants to be, Stacee Jaxx ( Antony Costa). Sherrie (Jodie Steele) dreams about being a movie star and leaves home to travel to LA, where she meets Drew (Luke Walsh) who is working at the Bourbon Room club while seeking fame as a rock star. The scene centred around the LA sunset strip where many actors and musicians gravitated to make it big. Bands like Motley Crue, Poison, and Guns ‘N’ Roses were huge and they pushed back against Punk and Rap which were gaining popularity. The metal club scene is in its heyday when outrageous hair, ripped jeans and attitude were what it’s about. Based in the peak of the Los Angeles metal scene in the 1980s, Rock of Ages brings classic rock tunes to the stage.
