From Las Vegas to Montreal: Cormier’s Role in the Rock Spectacle
Cormier, now based in Las Vegas, will portray Strat, the lead character and leader of a rebellious youth group. The story centers around a forbidden love affair between Strat and Raven, the daughter of Obsidian’s tyrannical ruler, leading to a dramatic conflict.

“It’s a huge challenge,” Cormier shared with Journal. “The songs suit me; I already knew them, they’re in my range… everything is quality. But I’ve never acted before. I’m working with coaches to ensure I pay tribute to the talent and genius of Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf. I’m ready to do anything to build it happen.”
