Quairading Curtain Raisers presents Rock of Ages!

Come on and feel the noise this October as the legends of Quairading Curtain Raisers take on Rock of Ages!

Featuring an all-star local band, cast and crew—with a few stalwarts of the stage and a sprinkling of fresh young talent—the Quairading Town Hall will be rocked on Friday 22nd, Saturday 23rd, Friday 29th and Saturday 30th October 2021.

Rock of Ages is a big, brash, energetic tribute to classic rock, to over-the-top ballads and fierce guitar, to the gritty glamour and rough energy of the Sunset Strip. This jukebox musical features ‘80s hits such as “We Built this City”, “I Wanna Rock”, and “Don’t Stop Believin”.

The Quairading Curtain Raisers have been taking to the stage every other year for the past three decades. The completely volunteer driven production raises money to donate to local community causes—the very first of which was for new curtains in the Quairading Town Hall, the very curtains that still sweep across the stage today.

A feature of Curtain Raisers’ productions of late has been a catered two course meal to go along with the show, however this year punters will have the opportunity to show off their platter game with BYO food encouraged for each performance. With the ongoing risk that changing COVID event restrictions will force last minute disruptions to performance dates, eliminating a catered meal reduces the risk of food and fund wastage—and creates a cheaper show ticket!

Local clubs and groups will be offered the opportunity to raise some funds for their own activities by taking on the management of the ever important bar at each night’s production. Club volunteers will be hard at work delivering tasty cold beverages direct to seated patrons so you can sit back relax, enjoy the show and your BYO nibbles.

If that wasn’t enough, the crafty Curtain Raisers cast and crew have been preparing some interactive pre-show entertainment to get audience members right in the mood. Without giving too much away, if you’re a fan of Spicks & Specks, RocKwiz and good old pub trivia, this is a pre-show not to be missed!

Book a ticket, grow out your mullet and don your band t-shirt. We’re going back to a sexier time, the 80s!

Tickets are just $30 per person and will go on sale Friday 17th September at 9am via the friendly team at the Quairading CRC. Call: 9645 0096 Email: quairading@crc.net.au Visit: 1 Parker Street, Quairading
