About the show
Based on the hit movie, Andrew Lloyd Webber's award-winning musical follows Dewey Finn, a failed rock star who poses as a substitute teacher and turns a class of straight-A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band.
An hour long, cheeky humour, a little rebellion and plenty of rock ‘n’ roll. Tickets are moving. Book today.
