The 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. Completely disinterested in academic work, Dewey decides to create his own curriculum, turning his class into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. The stage musical currently on Broadway is produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber, who has composed 14 new songs to create a score, which also features all of the original songs from the movie. <em style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;" class="">SCHOOL OF ROCK</em>, with its sensational live kids’ rock band, is a loving testimony to the transforming power of music.
