Rock of Ages Opens on Broadway

Rock of Ages, the new musical starring former American Idol contestant Constantine Maroulis, opens on Broadway. The rock musical featuring classic tunes by 1980s hair bands like Bon Jovi, Journey, Asia, and Whitesnake began Off-Broadway, but recently transferred to Broadway's Brooks Atkinson Theatre, where it is set for an open run. The tuner is about an aspiring musician who arrives on L.A.'s Sunset Strip with dreams of making it big as a rocker.

Constantine Goes Off-Broadway

Constantine Maroulis, a popular former American Idol contestant, is now going to be starring in an Off-Broadway show at New World Stages called Rock of Ages. The new musical, which features music by such rock bands as Journey and Bon Jovi, is about an aspiring young rock star. This won't be Maroulis's New York stage debut - he previously co-starred in the Broadway musical The Wedding Singer.
