The Arts HUB Presents: Rock of Ages

It’s 1987 Hollywood, the era of big dreamers and even bigger hair! City boy Drew and small-town girl Sherri are two such dreamers. Drew is a wannabe rock star, and Sherri longs to make it big in acting. They both find themselves working at the legendary Bourbon Room, one of the last great rock and roll venues of the Sunset Strip, when a pair of German entrepreneurs barge into town with plans to redevelop it. Dennis and Lonny, the managers of the Bourbon Room, must scramble to save their beloved club. Will the legendary Stacee Jaxx, the rock and roll star who made it big at the Bourbon Room, step up to save the place? Or will Drew, Sherri, Dennis, and Lonny have to take matters into their own hands?

Featuring the music of hit bands Styx, Journey, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake, and more, this jukebox musical pays tribute to the great rock and roll musicians of the 1980’s!

Recently, Teresa Suydam’s music video for Take Me to the Water was nominated for the Native American Music Awards.
