Wait a minute. One of my favorite movies is coming to Broadway, and it's going to be a musical? Am I dreaming? I sure hope not. Plus it's being composed by Tony, Grammy, and Academy Award winner Andrew Lloyd Webber. School of Rock, based on the 2003 film of the same name, is scheduled to begin previews at the Winter Garden Theatre on November 9, with opening night set for December 6.
Not only that, but this will mark the first Andrew Lloyd Webber show to have it's world premier on Broadway since the 1971 production of Jesus Christ Superstar. Which by the way ran for over two years, and achieved world-wide acclaim. Here's hoping his latest creation is just as successful. Now for those of you who have never seen the movie, here is a little synopsis about the show to get you up to speed. Enjoy!

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 is produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber who has composed 14
new songs to create a score which also features all the original songs
from the movie. SCHOOL OF ROCK, with its sensational live kids’ rock band, is a loving testimony to the transforming power of music.
Ready to see it now? I know I would be if I were you. Of course I might be a little partial. So now that you know what it's about, how do you get tickets? Well I guess you could wait until you get here, and hope that they are available. Not a good idea my friends. This show is going to be a hit. Luckily we sell the show. In fact we sell tickets for every show on Broadway. Get your tickets to see School of Rock on Broadway at the Winter Garden Theatre. Until next time rock fans.
