If you’re looking for a hilarious night of glitter garnished spandex and the flowing locks of rockers, you should get yourself over to the musical Rock of Ages at the Shaftesbury Theatre, London. It’s been a huge success in the US and now it’s on these shores. Set in an LA bar in the eighties, you can join the angst but mainly fun as the bar tries to save itself from demolition and two of its staff struggle with an obstacle-strewn romance. Justin Lee Collins stars in the musical alongside Shayne Ward, ex X-Factor winner who is completely unrecognisable as a self-obsessed lead singer in a metal band. The show is full of classic songs from Bon Jovi, Guns n’ Roses and more for you to sing along too. Best of all, it really doesn’t take itself seriously at any point. Not one for the kids though…

Well, I saw the Toronto production of this musical…..twice! I thought it was great for a totally uncomplicated night out. Great music, great 80’s hair and an easy story line. Any child of the 80’s will love this one!
I agree it’s definitely a fantastic musical night out! Really good fun with some classic songs.
