As previously reported back in September, it has been confirmed that musical theatre star and X Factor Champion Matt Terry will star as ‘Stacee Jaxx’ in the UK & Ireland tour of Rock of Ages, opening at the New Victoria Theatre Woking from 25 January and performing until 9 July at the Cliffs Pavilion, Southend.

Performer, singer and songwriter Matt Terry is perhaps best known as the champion of the 2016 series of ITV’s The X Factor. In addition to music, Matt has fronted his own radio show for Capital FM and has toured the world in leading roles in Dreamwork’s Madagascar The Musical and Broadway’s Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical.

The full cast of Rock of Ages includes Luke Walsh as ‘Drew’, Rhiannon Chesterman as ‘Sherrie’, Joe Gash as ‘Lonny’, Ross Dawes as ‘Dennis Dupree’, Gabriella Williams as ‘Regina’, Jenny Fitzpatrick as ‘Justice’, Vas Constanti as ‘Hertz Klinemann’, Andrew Carthy ‘Franz Klinenmann’ and Erin Bell as ‘Constance’. The cast is completed by Billy Roberts, Joshua Dever Scott Hayward, Siobhan James, Phoebe Samuel-Gray, Morgan Scott, Janine Somcio and Sam Turrell.

With a book by Chris D’Arienzo and arrangements/orchestrations by Ethan Popp, Rock of Ages is a hilarious musical comedy lavished with over 25 classic rock anthems, including, ‘We Built This City’, ‘The Final Countdown’, ‘Wanted Dead or Alive’, ‘Here I Go Again’, ‘Can’t Fight This Feeling’ and ‘I Want To Know What Love Is’, played loud and proud by an awesome live band. Leave it all behind and lose yourself in a city and a time where the dreams are as big as the hair, and yes, they can come true!

The production is directed and choreographed by Nick Winston, with design by Morgan Large, lighting by Ben Cracknell, sound by Ben Harrison, and video and projection by Duncan McLean.
