Theatre Blog: Broadway, Currently Playing

There are many shows playing right now on Broadway. Some of these include Jersey Boys, Rock of Ages, Catch Me if You Can, The Addams Family, and Sister Act. To buy tickets for any one of these performances, just go to http://ppc.broadway.com/ and pick the play you want. There is a Buy Ticket button right there on the screen for each play. Out of the many plays listed I have already talked about wanting to see The Addams Family, so I will pick another one that I find interesting. Since I like to listen to rock from the 80's, I think that Rock of Ages seems interesting. Rock of Ages is a rock musical set in Hollywood in the 1980s, when it was all about big chords, big dreams and big hair! Rock of Ages explores the pursuit of dreams and tells its story through hits from iconic groups and rockers of the 1980s.
