A blend of 1980s nostalgia and rock music, Rock of Ages incorporates a parade of ’80s hits, including “Every Rose Has Its Thorn,” “I Wanna Know What Love Is,” “Here I Go Again,” and “Don’t Stop Believin’.” The show’s book is by Chris D’Arienzo.
Rock of Ages opened Off-Broadway at New World Stages in the fall of 2008 before transferring to Broadway the following spring, picking up five 2009 Tony Award nominations including Best Musical. Rock of Ages ran for 2,328 performances before closing in January 2015. A screen adaptation was released in 2012.
