Tony Award nominated Broadway star, Kerry Butler (Xanadu, Hairspray) is starring in the five-time Tony nominated hit musical, ROCK OF AGES at Broadway's Brooks Atkinson Theatre (256 West 47th Street) as "Sherrie" for a six month limited engagement for six performances a week. The "Sherrie" understudy will play the role during both performances on Sundays. Constantine Maroulis continues his Tony Award Nominated performance staring in the show as "Drew".

Kerry Butler most recently starred on Broadway, and received Tony Award and Drama League Award nominations for her critically acclaimed role as ‘Kira" in Xanadu. A versatile musical theatre comedienne, Ms. Butler has made an indelible mark on Broadway playing such characters as Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors (Outer Critics Circle Award nom.), the original "Penny" in Hairspray (Clarence Derwent Award; Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle noms.), "Belle" in Beauty and the Beast (Belle), "Eponine" in Les Misérables and "Ms. Jones" in Blood Brothers. Off Broadway, she originated the roles of "Shelley" in Bat Boy: The Musical, "Maddy" in Prodigal, "Isabelle" in Miracle Brothers and "DeeDee" in the musical The Opposite of Sex. Kerry has also made numerous television appearances which include "Lipstick Jungle", "Cupid", CBS's "Second Honeymoon" (with Roma Downey), "Another World," "Sesame Street," "Hometown" and "One Life to Live" (Claudia Reston). She recently recorded her first solo CD, Faith, Trust and Pixie Dust, on PS Classics and performed as "Brenda" in the 2009 world premiere of the musical "Catch Me If You Can" this summer in Seattle.

In 1987 on the Sunset Strip, a small-town girl met a big-city dreamer - and in L.A.'s most legendary rock club, they fell in love to the greatest songs of the ‘80's. It's ROCK OF AGES, a hilarious, feel-good love story told through the hit songs of iconic rockers Journey, Styx, REO Speedwagon, Foreigner, Pat Benatar, Whitesnake, and many more. Don't miss this awesomely good time where big hair meets big dreams and the result totally wails. The show is written by Chris D'Arienzo, directed by Kristin Hanggi and choreographed by Kelly Devine.

Tickets can be purchased via Ticketmaster.com/ 212-307-4100 or in person at The Brooks Atkinson Box Office (256 West 47th Street).
