Aussie/Filipino WEST END star, ROCKSTAR:INXS finalist, and now INTERNATIONAL RECORDING ARTIST MiG Ayesa is back in Boston, this time with the cast of ‘ROCK OF AGES' for its next stop on the US tour. MiG is playing the role of STACEE JAXX, opposite American Idol's Tony Award Nominee Constantine Maroulis, who reprises his acclaimed performance as ‘Drew', for the musical tour across the country.

‘ROCK OF AGES', playing at the Colonial Theatre for a limited two-week engagement October 6-17, 2010, celebrated one year on Broadway as well as 5 Tony Award nominations and 267 sold out shows before hitting the road for its US tour in September. Its first stop ‘rocked' the city of Chicago with its sold out shows and rave reviews. ‘ROCK OF AGES' is a hair-band love story of a small town girl who meets a big city rocker on LA's Sunset Strip's most famous dive bar. They fall in love to the greatest songs of the '80's as the story is told through the mind-blowing, face melting hits of Journey, STYX, Bon Jovi, Poison, Whitesnake and many more.

MiG's last visit to Boston was in September 2008, performing in the Chicago Emmy Nomimated ‘HANDEL'S MESSIAH ROCKS'. While musical theatre continues to be one of MiG's greatest aspirations, it is the people that he meets while on tour and getting to explore and know the cities that gives him the most inspiration and joy. Although MiG has played leads on a Broadway musical (‘BURN THE FLOOR') and stages such as London's West End (‘WE WILL ROCK YOU', ‘RENT', ‘BUDDY') and in Australia (‘GREASE', ‘FAME', ‘RENT', ‘WEST SIDE STORY', ‘BUDDY'), sang on television shows (ROCKSTAR:INXS, HANDEL'S MESSIAH ROCKS, THE ROYAL VARIETY PERFORMANCE), toured with concerts (‘THRILLER:LIVE!', ‘QUEEN SYMPHONIC SPECTACULAR', ‘THE MUSIC OF Andrew Lloyd Webber'), played vampires on film (QUEEN OF THE DAMNED) and globally released his self-titled debut CD through Decca/Universal, it is his love of performing, hitting that next city, next gig, and the people that he will meet, that not only keeps MiG ready to ‘rock', it keeps him feeling blessed beyond measure and filled with excitement for what the future holds.

MiG is also in the final stages of recording his follow-up CD, due for release in the coming months.
