School of Rock set to shred the stage at Wolverhampton Grand

School of Rock - The Musical, Andrew Lloyd Webber’s smash hit, award-winning West End show is set to rock Wolverhampton Grand Theatre this September.

Auditions are in full swing and full casting will follow later this summer, but in the meantime you can go wild for the super-talented young auditionees as they rock out with some killer shred guitar and perfect their stage moves in a new video recorded at the London Palladium.
 
Based on the hilarious hit movie, this 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 – sensationally performed live by the production’s young actors every night with roof-raising energy!
 
Featuring 14 new songs from Andrew Lloyd Webber and all the original songs from the movie, this high-octane smash delivers face-melting guitar riffs and touching romance in equally awesome doses.
 
The production opened on Broadway at the Winter Garden Theatre in December 2015 before quickly transferring to the West End and opening at the New London Theatre (now the Gillian Lynne Theatre) in November 2016 to 5-star reviews and widespread critical acclaim. It went on to win the Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Music. 
 
School Of Rock has a book by Julian Fellowes - the creator, writer and executive producer of the worldwide hit TV series, Downton Abbey which has received 69 Emmy Award nominations, winning 15, including two awards for Fellowes.
 
Tickets for School Of Rock, which runs from Tuesday 21st to Saturday 25th September, are on sale now and can be booked online at grandtheatre.co.uk.
