Cast members from the original Broadway production of Rock of Ages performed hits from the show on top of the Times Square Hard Rock Café April 25.
The long-running, Tony-nominated musical is set to return to New World Stages, the home of its original 2008 Off-Broadway premiere, June 19 for a limited engagement. The show will reflect the staging and production designs from the Broadway original, which ran from April 2009–January 2015, playing 2,350 performances and launching a successful national tour and subsequent film adaptation.

With a book by Chris D'Arienzo, Rock of Ages features direction by Kristin Hanggi and choreography by Kelly Devine. The revival is produced by Michael Cohl/S2BN Entertainment in association with Barry Habib, Scott Prisand/Seth Fass, Tony Smith, and Randi Zuckerberg/Mara Burros-Sandler.
Surrounded by period-accurate, 19th-century holiday decorations lit via candlelight, the 70-minute production is based on Dickens' own script of the classic.
