Juno Myers, a student at Reynolds High School who lives in Lewisville, will be featured in a dual role as Justice Charlier/Ensemble Leader.
Set on L.A.’s famous Sunset Strip in 1987, Rock of Ages tells the story of Drew, a city boy from South Detroit, and Sherrie, a small-town girl, who have both traveled to L.A. to chase their dreams of making it big and falling in love. This classic love story is set against the troubles at the Dupree Room, a “legendary temple of rock ‘n’ roll excellence,” now under threat by developers of being torn down and replaced with a strip mall. The threats of closure bring legendary rocker Stacee Jaxx to town, and an opportunity for Drew to chase his dream to rock out with the best.
Trouble brews as Drew abandons Sherrie for his dream of stardom, rock ‘n’ roll bad boy Stacee lures Sherrie away, and the Dupree Room is surrendered to developers. Can Drew and Sherrie rescue their love? And can the Dupree Room be saved before it’s too late?
Rock of Ages (Youth Edition) will be directed by Kellie Harris, with music direction by Charity Hampton and choreography by Kelly Greathouse. Molly McNair will design costumes. Jason Irons will design the lighting and Eppie Miller will design the sound. Grace Hampton will stage manage the production.
