Jukebox rock

19.06.13

You’ve never met a 26-year-old man so excited to wear acid-washed clothing until you’ve spoken with Stephen Kane.

“Actually, a full acid-washed outfit with a jean jacket, acid-washed jeans, double polos, and a popped collar,” the actor clarified in a recent phone interview from San Jose, Calif., where he was on tour with “Rock of Ages,” a Broadway musical turned movie that will take the stage at the F.M. Kirby Center Feb. 15.

The costumes are just a glimpse into the flashy fun of the production. Kane, a Binghamton, N.Y. native whose first stage tour was “Hairspray” at the age of 19, was a fan of the musical before he even dreamed he’d be a part of it based solely on its tone.

“When I watched it the first time, I was surprised by how funny it is. My stomach hurt from laughing so hard.”

“Rock of Ages” is a “jukebox” musical, a show built upon hit songs from the 1980s. Kane calls the way the songs are woven into the plot “brilliant,” a storyline that incorporates hits like “Wanted Dead or Alive” by Bon Jovi, “Every Rose Has Its Thorn” by Poison, and “Don’t Stop Believin’” by Journey, among many, many others.
