Rock of Ages

May 1st, 2025 - May 25th, 2025

Plug in, turn it up, and come feel the noise at Metropolis with an evening of exhilarating power ballads and radical rock anthems! Nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Rock of Ages will take you back to the decade of decadence when everything was larger than life, including the hairstyles.

Directed by three-time Jeff Award-winning Director, Derek Van Barham (Kokandy Productions), this rock n’ roll romance between a small-town girl and a city boy on the iconic Sunset Strip is threatened when developers plan to turn the legendary music venue, The Bourbon Room, into just another corporate abyss.

Will the renegade rockers hold on to that feeling, or will it be the final countdown? Featuring the electrifying rock n’ roll smash hits that defined a decade from bands like Styx, Whitesnake, Pat Benatar, Poison, Twisted Sister, and more, this racy, high-energy romp takes you on an intoxicating journey back to the 1980s when rock, neon, and spandex reigned supreme.
