Following the final bows of ROCK OF AGES on Broadway on Jan. 18, 2015, Las Vegas now serves as the only location to witness this high octane production in the United States. Fatone will perform alongside the Las Vegas cast through April 2015. Cast member Troy Burgess, who originated the role of "Dennis Dupree" in Las Vegas, will return to the role at the conclusion of Fatone's engagement.
