This jukebox musical features ‘80s hits such as “We Built this City”, “I Wanna Rock”, and “Don’t Stop Believin’”. Rock of Ages is a big, brash, energetic tribute to classic rock, to over-the-top ballads and fierce guitar, to the gritty glamour and rough energy of the Sunset Strip. Who can save the Bourbon Room, the young lovers, and the feuding Germans? Only Lonny, the “dramatic conjurer”, knows for sure. In the midst of violent anti-demolition protests, Sherrie flees to a nearby strip club and Drew falls into the clutches of a boy band. But Stacee, a man of massive charisma and massive ego, leaves destruction in his wake, sleeping with Sherrie and getting knocked out by his own band before the concert is over. Dennis convinces rock god Stacee Jaxx, lead singer of megaband Arsenal, to play the band’s last show at the Bourbon Room, hopeful that the money raised will stop the building from being demolished. But when the Mayor of West Hollywood, persuaded by a couple of scheming German real estate developers, announces his intention to demolish the Bourbon Room and the entire gritty Sunset Strip, the stakes are raised. Love-struck Drew convinces Dennis to hire Sherrie, and the stage seems set for their romance. ![]() When bright-eyed young hopeful Sherrie Christian, a small-town girl who wants to make it as an actress, arrives in town, she bumps into Drew, a Bourbon Room busboy with dreams of rock and roll stardom. ![]() The music venue has seen better days, but as run by chilled-out former rock impresario Dennis Dupree, and tended to by Dennis’s mischievous assistant Lonny, it is the essence of rock and roll. It is 1987, and the fabled West Hollywood club the Bourbon Room is the seedy, sordid, vibrant heart of the Sunset Strip. This show contains flashing lights and strobe effects.īiloxi Little Theatre kicks off its 76th season with the classic rock jukebox musical Rock of Ages! We're sorry, but children under the age of 6 are not allowed. This show contains adult language and content and is not suitable for younger children (think "R" rated). ![]() If you get the chance go and see this cast perform form my experiences i believe whatever the show it is well worth the $20 ticket price, and the refreshments are only pennies, if I could go to another one i would.CONTENT NOTE: This show has all the glorious excess of a Whitesnake video. Biloxi certainly has talent, the adults and children alike, not a single word forgotten. ![]() The acting was superb, the singing was great with only the odd minor tuning issue. Les mis is not an easy show to perform but the cast did brilliantly it is a little place and it made the atmosphere more exciting. Before the show started the theatre director announced they had won the gulf coast best theatre award and it is week deserved. So we got tickets for a Sunday Matinee which turned out to be sold out and I can only say it was fantastic, I enjoyed this show equally as much if not more than those i have seen in the West End'. We are in Biloxi on oa family holiday and saw 'Les Mis' advertised by this amateur dramatic society and my husband wanted to go. ![]()
