January is always a dark time for Broadway, and over a quarter of the shows on Broadway closed this past weekend.

When the opening credits of Rock of Ages starts playing, the audience is immediately thrown into a time warp filled with large 1980s hair, overly-done blue eye shadow and leather jackets. In an upbeat and comedic style, many parts of this Broadway musical film adaptation are extremely well done, while many parts are almost a failure.
The upcoming musical Rock of Ages stars Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand, and Catherine Zeta-Jones and is directed by Hairspray‘s Adam Shankman. Featuring music of classic rock singers and bands such as Journey, Foreigner, and Def Leppard, the soundtrack is now available for pre-order on iTunes!
