MIDLAND, MI, July 30, 2024, – Center Stage Theatre is thrilled to present the electrifying Broadway
hit Rock of Ages on the Outdoor Stage this August. Directed and choreographed by Megan Meyer,
with Myah Shelton as Assistant Director and Assistant Choreographer, and Christian Heintzelman as
Music Director, this high-energy production will transport audiences back to the 1980s for an
unforgettable rock 'n' roll experience. Performances are scheduled for two weekends from August 7
- 9 and 14 - 16 at 8 PM.

The ‘80s are back with this five-time Tony Award-nominated musical, featuring a story of a
small-town girl, a city boy, and a rock 'n' roll romance on the Sunset Strip. Aspiring rocker Drew
dreams of glory while longing for Sherri, fresh off the bus from Kansas with stars in her eyes. When
the bar where rock reigns supreme is set to be demolished by German developers, it's up to these
wannabe rockers and their band of friends to save the day – and the music!

The show has captivated audiences around the world with its infectious energy and nostalgic
soundtrack. Featuring an electric score, accompanied by a live rock band, features all your favorite
‘80s rock anthems and power ballads, including: “Every Rose Has Its Thorn,” “I Wanna Know What
Love Is,” “Here I Go Again,” “We Built This City,” “Don't Stop Believin’,” and more!

Rock of Ages is written by Chris D’Arienzo, with arrangements and orchestrations by Ethan Popp.
Rock of Ages is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. For more information, visit
