Tony Award® Nominee and “American Idol” finalist, Constantine Maroulis, reprises his acclaimed performance as Drew in the First National Tour of the five-time Tony Award® nominated smash-hit musical ROCK OF AGES! In 1987 on the Sunset Strip, a small town girl met a big city rocker and in LA’s most famous rock club, they fell in love to the greatest songs of the 80’s. It’s five time 2009 Tony® nominee ROCK OF AGES, an arena-rock love story told through the mind-blowing, face-melting hits of JOURNEY, NIGHT RANGER, STYX, REO SPEEDWAGON, PAT BENATAR, TWISTED SISTER, POISON, ASIA, WHITESNAKE and many more. Don’t miss this awesomely good time about dreaming big, playing loud and partying on! We think kids will have a great time, but you should know that some of the costumes, dancing and language may not be appropriate for kids under the age of 14.

      The fog machine went into overdrive before the show and the fire alarm went off. The narrator used the incident to make some good impromptu jokes. The singing was excellent, the acting was stellar, and the dancing was amazing. I liked how all the songs fit into the script. The storyline was very well-written. I had a great time watching this show. I would like to see it again. Collapse

      I attended "Rock of Ages" with the intention of "dancing the night away". Although the dancing (and singing) was strictly on the stage, I was a little disappointed in the fact that the music did not invite me to "rock and roll". The only dancing I did was at the end of the show "Don't stop Believing". Constantine Maroulis was excellent in the role of a wannabe rock star in love with a wannabe actress. The plot was one we've seen many times - boy loves girl - they separate - and find their way back to each other. I enjoyed the show but it just wasn't great! Collapse

      The music was loud and the hair was big!! A great time at the theatre was had by all. Strong performances were handed in by all cast members.

      As someone who grew up in the 70s/80s, I was looking forward to a fun, mindless night of classic rock. Although I certainly wasn't expecting Shakespeare, the plot on this show is razor thin and makes Mamma Mia look sophisticated in comparison. This could all be forgiven if they would just sing the songs straight through from start to end, but the pacing was choppy and annoying. Collapse
