Hit Him With Your Best Shot! Frankie J. Grande Joins Broadway’s Rock of Ages

Broadway and Big Brother alum Frankie J. Grande returns to the Great White Way in Rock of Ages beginning November 10. He’ll play a limited engagement as Franz in the rock ‘n’ roll tuner at the Helen Hayes Theatre through January 18, 2015.

Grande has appeared on the Broadway stage in Mamma Mia!, and served as a producer for the revivals of Hamlet, La Bete and Born Yesterday. He also played a drag queen pageant hopeful in the benefit production of Pageant: The Musical. He was originally scheduled to star in the tuner’s recent off-Broadway production, but instead appeared on Big Brother. Speaking of older siblings, he's Ariana Grande's half-brother.

Featuring a score of such classic rock hits as "Here I Go Again," “Every Rose Has Its Thorn” and “Don’t Stop Believin’,” Rock of Ages tells the story of Drew, an aspiring rock star who moves to Los Angeles to make his dreams come true. The current cast also includes Constantine Maroulis, Lauren Zakrin, Chester See, Genson Blimline, Adam Dannheisser, Josephine Rose Roberts and Teresa Stanley.
