There's still time to catch Carpet Trades Musical Theatre Company's production of Rock of Ages
The amps are warming up and the hairspray is ready—Carpet Trades Musical Theatre Company (CTMTC) is set to bring the smash-hit jukebox musical Rock of Ages to life from Monday 13 October through Saturday 18 October 2025. Performances will take place each evening at the Rose Theatre, Kidderminster, promising audiences an unforgettable blast of 1980s glam rock.
Set on Los Angeles’ famed Sunset Strip, Rock of Ages follows aspiring rocker Drew and small-town dreamer Sherrie as they chase stardom, love, and big hair in a world where the music of Journey, Bon Jovi, whitesnake and others keeps spirits high. Expect powerhouse vocals, outrageous comedy, and plenty of air-guitar moments.
Director Alex Thompson couldn’t be prouder of the team’s progress. “This is more than a musical—it’s a party,” Alex enthuses. “The cast has poured their hearts into every rehearsal. Audiences can expect a night where they’ll laugh, sing along, and maybe even dust off their own air guitars. We can’t wait to share that joy with the community.”
Whether you lived through the 1980s or just love a good power ballad, this production promises a feel-good night of big voices, big dreams, and even bigger hair. Get ready to rock!
Performances run until October 18, with evening shows at 7.30pm and a Saturday matinee at 2pm. Ticket prices are £18 for all evening performances and £17 for the Saturday matinee.
Tickets are available now through the Rose Theatre Kidderminster box office, online at rosetheatre.co.uk or by calling 01562 743745.
