The worldwide party musical Rock of Ages brings favorite hits from the 1980s to the stage at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 22, in Penn State’s Eisenhower Auditorium.

Rock of Ages is set in 1987. On the Sunset Strip, a small town girl meets a big city rocker. In Los Angeles’ most famous rock club, they fall in love to the greatest songs of the 1980s.

Some of the costumes, dancing and language might not be appropriate for kids younger than 14.
Artistic Viewpoints, an informal moderated discussion featuring a touring artist, is offered in Eisenhower one hour before the performance and is free for ticket holders. Artistic Viewpoints regularly fills to capacity. Seating is available on a first-arrival basis.
