One of my favourite theatrical performances all year, Rock of Ages!
A love story told in the true rocker style. Crazy hair, bright lights, fog machines, glitter and pamphlets showering the audience.. no worries... oh yeah and a bit of bum. We had third row seats just off centre, perfect for capturing and being involved in the true essence of the production! Seats make ALL the difference, so if ever there is a chance of getting good seats and paying a tad more I try and take it! The ushers decked out in their 80s rocker and groupie outfits not only guiding us to our seats but asking if we wanted any drinks delivered mid performance, selling programs and CDs, merchandise (had to buy the tshirt and program), the works. Actually come to think of it, perhaps a concert environment better describes the atmosphere. (even with the expensive price for snacks! Hahaha)
From the first act, the audience were drawn back in time into this recreated world where a love story nestled, a love of a boy, and a boys love for the music. The theatrical performers successfully conveyed all the action, drama, dope from the late 70s and 80s. If I had the money I would go again without a doubt! -enters all the online competition for free tix- It's a must see!!!!! OMG GO AND SEE IT!!!
Cannot forget the highlight of hearing the songs of the 80s soo smoothly weaved into a performance!
Before I go I will leave you with a great quote, line, phrase, lyric...
Don't Stop Believing!
