School of Rock is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s award-winning smash musical based on the hilarious hit movie.
The musical follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn a few extra bucks by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band – sensationally performed live by the production’s young actors every night with roof-raising energy!
Originally premiering on Broadway before transferring to London’s West End as well as various tours including US and UK tours, School of Rock means school is back in – forever!
