HALIFAX theatre group HAOS Productions is to stage the Broadway and West End musical Rock Of Ages.

The show, which features a host of well-known 1980s rock songs, will be at the Victoria Theatre from September 14 to 17.

The show is set on LA’s infamous Sunset Strip in 1987, and tells the story of Drew, a boy from South Detroit, and Sherrie, a small-town girl.

They are both in the city to chase their dreams of fame and rock stardom while falling in love.

Working at a Hollywood club, The Bourbon Room, the pair get mixed up with everyone from pretentious rock stars to wicked redevelopers who want to close down the club.

A spokesman said: “Rock Of Ages takes you back to a time of big music, big egos, big guitar solos and even bigger hair with classic rock and glam metal from the 1980s.

“Everything from Bon Jovi, Europe, Twisted Sister, Journey to Poison will be belted out in this spectacular production.”

Songs include Don’t Stop Believin’, Nothin’ But A Good Time, Wanted Dead Or Alive and Hit Me With Your Best Shot.

The show will be directed by Halifax panto star and radio presenter Neil Hirst, with Luke Robbins-Ross as the musical director and Sarah Attah is choreographer.

Neil said rehearsals had started well with a committed cast dedicated to putting on a fantastic production.

Neil Hirst has for many years been the star of the annual pantomime at the Victoria Theatre in Halifax, playing the popular funnyman.
