Not many Tony Award-nominated Broadway musicals can boast of contributions from Quiet Riot, Styx, Poison, Twisted Sister, Journey, Whitesnake and Bon Jovi. Well, to be fair, there’s really only one—Rock of Ages, which returns to Boston on its 10th anniversary tour. Playing the Boch Center’s Wang Theatre October 23–28, Rock of Ages tells the 1980s-set tale of aspiring rock star Drew, who tries to make a name for himself on Hollywood’s Sunset Strip, ground zero for that era’s hair-metal heroes. Will Drew save the Strip from evil developers, get the girl and achieve his rock ’n’ roll dreams? Find out when this Aquanet-enhanced stage extravaganza rolls into town.
