Happy 1st Anniversary "Rock of Ages"

Hey Rockers!

While the ACTUAL date of the 1st birthday of Broadway's "Rock of Ages" is today (Wednesday, April 7), the show is dark, so a bash was thrown last night at Tony's di Napoli for the cast, crew, producers and Brooks Atkinson staff to celebrate the anniversary with lots of good food, speeches, music, and a gorgeous cake. However the highlight was a video created by the producers, featuring the fans of the show (including a few famous ones!) talking about how the show touched their lives.

Here it is...


In addition, the show's star, Constantine Maroulis was added to Tony di Napoli's Wall of fame with a portrait unveiling, hosted by restaurant manager Bruce Dipflmaier and Wall of Fame producer Valerie Smaldone. Here's a list of links to terrific photo and video coverage of the portrait's unveiling (we'll update the links as more sites post their coverage):

Congratulations to Constantine on the portrait and the "Rock of Ages" company on celebrating their first of hopefully many years of rocking hearts and melting faces all over the world!

Rock on,
