Rock of Ages: The Sunset Strip shakes in Stegaurach
Guitar riffs slice through the night, neon colors flood the stage, and the spirit of the 1980s returns at full volume: The artists' workshop e.V. brings the Broadway rock musical Rock of Ages by Chris D'Arienzo to the Bürgersaal Stegaurach on Saturday, October 31, 2026. A cast of over 20 performers, a live rock band, acting, dance, and singing combine to create an energetic stage experience.
Love, Dreams, and Rock’n’Roll
The story takes place right on the legendary Sunset Strip in 1980s Los Angeles. Amid high career hopes, personal loss, friendship, and a passionate love story, a young generation fights for its place in the spotlight. At the same time, the preservation of a musical home is at stake. Thus, a story unfolds about the courage to believe in one's dreams, even when amplifiers are roaring and the future remains uncertain.
A rock musical production with live energy
The dramaturgy of Rock of Ages intertwines a romantic plot, winking humor, and the grand gestures of a classic rock show. The artists' workshop relies on live music, captivating acting, dynamic dance, and immediate live singing. Songs by Journey, Twisted Sister, Pat Benatar, Bon Jovi, and Poison provide the evening with its pulsating soundtrack.
Stage Design, Costumes, and Acoustics in the Sign of the 80s
The Bürgersaal creates a dazzling stage world between glamour, hairspray, and big guitar riffs. The stage design and lighting by Georg Graefe support the time travel to the Sunset Strip, while costumes and makeup by Sarah Oerlicke, along with the performers, shape the eccentric style of the era. The live rock band places the sound at the center and makes the theater atmosphere physically palpable.
Chris D'Arienzo's cult musical on the stage of the artists' workshop
Chris D'Arienzo's musical premiered in 2005 and is available in a German translation by Holger Hauer. The artists' workshop e.V. from Stegaurach develops its own production from it, featuring a large ensemble and the characteristic interplay of musical theater, drama, and dance for their productions. The result appeals to both musical fans and rock lovers who want to experience the sound of the 1980s live.
