ABOUT
The School of Rock musical, based on the beloved 2003 film, is a high-energy celebration of music, rebellion, and self-discovery. With a book by Julian Fellowes and music by the legendary Andrew Lloyd Webber, the show brings the story of Dewey Finn—a struggling musician who poses as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school—to life on stage. Dewey discovers the musical talent hidden in his straight-laced students and transforms them into a rock band that challenges conventions and wins hearts. The musical features original songs from the film, along with new compositions by Webber that amplify its infectious energy and emotional depth.
Premiering on Broadway in 2015, School of Rock received critical acclaim for its dynamic score, humor, and performances, particularly from its young cast who play their instruments live on stage. The show explores themes of empowerment, teamwork, and staying true to oneself, making it both entertaining and heartwarming. With electrifying rock numbers like “Stick It to the Man” and touching ballads such as “If Only You Would Listen,” School of Rock resonates with audiences of all ages. Its vibrant storytelling and powerful music make it a standout addition to the world of musical theater.
