Andrew Lloyd Webber’s critically acclaimed Broadway smash-hit School of Rock The Musical is now thrilling London audiences at the Gillian Lynne Theatre.

Playing at the Gillian Lynne Theatre, the home of Webber’s original production of Cats.

Based on the iconic, hit movie, this irresistible new musical follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a supply teacher at a prestigious prep school. There he turns 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 parents and the school’s headmistress finding out? Book your tickets today to join Dewey on his rock adventure!

    When Lloyd Webber and Julian Fellowes let down their hair, the results are hardly anti-establishment. But the kids are genuinely talented and this is good-natured entertainment

    I honestly wasn’t sure how I’d enjoy the show or not as I went as a birthday surprise with my sisters, but after only 5 mins into to show, to the last clap i had a brilliant afternoon. A real fun factor uplifting performance. The children were brilliant. I want to see the show again and take my granddaughter..... a great recommendation for ALL age groups
