From a press release:

The 10th Anniversary Tour of the Tony Award-winning production of “Rock of Ages” will visit the F.M. Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre for two performances on Tuesday, Oct. 16 and Wednesday, Oct. 17 at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets, which are $45, $55, and $65, are on sale now and available at the Sundance Vacations Box Office at the Kirby Center (71 Public Square, Wilkes-Barre), online at kirbycenter.org, and by phone at 570-826-1100.

Broadway’s best party is turning up the volume to 10 as the “Rock of Ages” 10th Anniversary Tour blazes across North America.

Nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Musical, “Rock of Ages” captures the iconic era that was the big bad 1980s Hollywood. Hear songs like “I Want to Know What Love Is,” “Cum On Feel the Noize,” “Hit Me with Your Best Shot,” “Don’t Stop Believin’,” “We Built This City,” “The Final Countdown,” “Wanted Dead or Alive,” and “Can’t Fight This Feeling” at one of the Sunset Strip’s last epic venues, a place where the legendary Stacee Jaxx returns to the stage and rock ‘n’ roll dreamers line up to turn their fantasies into reality.

Featuring the music of hit bands such as Styx, Poison, Twisted Sister, Pat Benatar, REO Speedwagon, and Whitesnake, among many others, this 10th anniversary production features a dynamic new cast revisiting the larger-than-life characters and exhilarating story that turned “Rock of Ages” into a global phenomenon.

This is one for the ages that will have you singing “Here I Go Again.”
