If you wanna rock, you gotta break the rules... Stick it to the man!

Based on the hilarious hit movie of the same name, Andrew Lloyd Webber's award-winning musical sees Dewey Finn a failed wannabe rock star getting fired from his own band. In an effort to earn a few extra bucks he poses as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school, turning a class of straight-A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of the Bands without their uptight parents and the school's headmistress finding out?

School of Rock, young actors edition is packed with high-octaine musical numbers and plenty of heart, celebrating individuality, courage and the transformative power of music.

Performances:
Wednesday 1 July, 7pm
Thursday 2 July, 10am and 7pm
Friday 3 July, 7pm
Saturday 4 July, 5pm and 7pm
