Rock of Ages: The Broadway Musical Comedy
Madison Theatre Guild & OUT!Cast Theater
Bartell Theatre 113 E. Mifflin St., Madison, Wisconsin 53703

The original Rock of Ages musical was a high-flying, exaggerated look into the flamboyant music and people that made up the ‘80s rock scene, spoofing the outsized macho male egos that dominated acts like REO Speedwagon, Styx and Twisted Sister. This show, a co-production of OUT!Cast Theater and Madison Theatre Guild, has an all-woman creative team. It will be interesting to see them up the ante at a time when we’re all aware of how ridiculous and damaging celebrity egos can be. It’s also going to be a lot of fun, with some don’t-miss performances from Madison’s finest.
