The Firehouse Theatre is turning up the volume this summer with the smash-hit jukebox musical "Rock of Ages," running August 7-24. This high-energy show is packed with big hair, big dreams and even bigger rock anthems. Get ready for a feel-good blast of nostalgia, love, and rock ‘n’ roll!
Set in the late 1980s on Hollywood's iconic Sunset Strip, "Rock of Ages" tells the story of aspiring rock star Drew and small-town girl Sherri. As they chase their dreams at one of the Strip's last legendary venues, German developers threaten to turn the area into a strip mall. Can they save the Strip with the power of rock 'n' roll? Featuring hits from Styx, Journey, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake and more, this musical promises a rocking good time!
“Directing 'Rock of Ages' has been a wild ride! We’re cranking it up to eleven and serving 'Nothin’ But a Good Time.' This cast is ready to 'Hit You With Their Best Shot' every night! So grab your hairspray, 'Don’t Stop Believin’,' and 'Cum On Feel The Noize' with this nonstop 80s party, because once we start rockin’, 'We’re Not Gonna Take It' easy on anyone!” said director Benjamin Keegan Arnold.
