Rock of Ages: Musical Info & Synopsis


Synopsis:

Rock of Ages follows the story of Drew, a small-town boy with big dreams of becoming a rock star, and Sherrie, a small-town girl with similar aspirations. But when German developers arrive with plans to transform the fabled Sunset Strip into a capitalist strip mall, Drew, Sherrie, and the others must come together to save the strip and preserve the spirit of rock ‘n’ roll before it’s too late. Rock of Ages is a celebration of the spirit of the ’80s and the power of rock ‘n’ roll.
