Photo Flash: First Look at ROCK OF AGES At The Barn Players

Get ready for a rabble rousing, foot stomping, silly, thrilling local community theater premiere, when the monster Broadway hit ROCK OF AGES takes the stage at The Barn Players: November 8th through November 18th at The Arts Asylum: 1000 East 9th Street, (off Harrison Street), Kansas City, MO 64106.

Set amidst the electric energy of Hollywood's Sunset Strip, ROCK OF AGES is a big, brash tribute to the over-the-top gritty glamour of 1980's rock n' roll. The plot? Foreign developers plan to turn a fabled hard rock venue into yet another strip mall. Can the club's regulars possibly save the nightspot before it's too late?
