Filipino-Australian rocker MiG Ayesa will be reprising his role as Stacee Jaxx in the Manila production of the hit Broadway musical, Rock of Ages.
MiG, who became popular in the Philippines when he joined and finished 3rd in the CBS singing reality show Rockstar INXS, is back on the city where he was born for the said show.
Rock of Ages will also feature Filipino talents like Vina Morales as the stripper Sherrie Christian and Nyoy Volante as the busboy Drew Boley.
In the show, it is 1987 on the Sunset Strip in LA where Drew, a busboy, is dreaming of being a rock star while he works at the Strip’s most famous bar, The Bourbon Room. He meets Sherrie, a small-town girl who goes to LA to pursue her dreams of being an actress. They fall in love and then lose each other when the famous, sexy, over the top rock star, Stacee Jaxx comes into the picture.
