Rock Out To Rock of Ages Thru Applause


I have to tell you how happy I am that Rock of Ages is moving into a Broadway theatre March 17th after a very successful run Off-Broadway.
This show transported me back to my younger years. Rock of Ages has all the hits from Journey, Bon Jovi, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Pat Benatar and many others.
Taking place in 1987 on The Sundset Strip in LA's most famous rock club, it tells the story of a small town girl that meets a big city rocker and how they fall in love.
Although intended for mature audiences (14+), I took my 8 1/2 year old daughter who loved it as much as I did. ( I did have to remind her that what happens in the theatre stays in the theatre).
So all that's left to say is .... If you are ready to Rock Out.. Call Applause today.....

Rock of Ages Tickets on Broadway are On Sale Now

I had loads of fun when I first saw Rock of Ages in an Off Broadway theater some months ago. I am happy to see that the show will move to Broadway and play the Brooks Atkinson Theater starting with performances on March 17, 2009.

Rock of Ages is a "rock musical" that takes place in Hollywood in the mid 1980's. The story is cute, about a small town girl meeting a big city rock star at L.A.s most famous rock n' roll club. The two fall in love to the "hit songs of the 80's". How cute is that?

Rock of Ages features music that of many of us grew up with- Bon Jovi, Journey, Styx, Pat Benetar, REO Speedwagon, Foreigner, Twisted Sister, Poison, Asia, Whitesnake and several others. I couldn't believe how I knew most of the songs and look forward to seeing Rock of Ages again in the next week or two.

Chris D'Arienzo wrote the musical and Kristin Haggi is the director of Rock of Ages. Choreography is by Kelly Devine. Rock of Ages starring actors are Constantine Maroulis, Amy Spanger and James Carpinello with an energetic and extremely talented supporting ensemble.

If you call now, Applause Theater Service, an officially licensed ticket agency for Rock of Ages and all the other Broadway theater in New York City, has access to specially discounted seats for Rock of Ages from now through May 3, 2009. It even includes several weekend performances.
