New York Times Critics’ Pick and “an inspiring jolt of energy, joy and mad skillz!” (
Entertainment Weekly). Andrew Lloyd Webber, the man who brought rock and romance to Broadway, is back with a new hard-core hit.
Reuters raves “Andrew Lloyd Webber has Broadway rocking!”
Based on the hit film, this hilarious new 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. While teaching these pint-sized prodigies what it means to truly rock, Dewey falls for the school’s beautiful, but uptight headmistress, helping her rediscover the wild child within.
School of Rock delivers face-melting guitar riffs and touching romance in equally awesome doses! This high-octane smash features 14 new songs from Andrew Lloyd Webber, all the original songs from the movie and Broadway’s first-ever kids rock band playing their instruments live on stage.
Vanity Fair raves, “Fists of all ages shall be pumping!”
