Rock of Ages

King's Theatre Glasgow

Following their successful productions of Footloose and Legally Blonde, GLOC was back with the high-energy, hair-raising hit Rock Of Ages.

It's the tail end of the big, bad 1980s in Hollywood, and the party has been raging hard. Aqua Net, Lycra, lace and liquor flow freely at one of the Sunset Strip's last legendary venues. Aspiring rock star Drew longs to take the stage as the next big thing, and longs for small-town girl Sherri, fresh off the bus from Kansas with stars in her eyes.

But the rock 'n' roll fairy tale is about to end when German developers sweep into town. Can Drew, Sherri and the gang save the strip, and themselves, before it's too late? Featuring the music of Styx, Journey, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake and more.
