SYNOPSIS

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s School of Rock – The Musical is a two-hour, two-act show, based on the hit Paramount movie. The show follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute 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?

 

PRINCIPALS FOR THIS AUDITION ONLY

 

DEWEY FINN / UNDERSTUDY*  [Onstage Guitar, Rock Tenor (B2-E5), Late 20s-40s] – A wannabe rock star with big dreams. Dewey finds himself in urgent need of some cash after getting kicked out of his band. He impersonates a teacher to land a job at the prestigious Horace Green prep school, where he turns his class of straight-A students into a rock group and enters them into the Battle of the Bands

 

 

ZACK MOONEYHAM [Onstage Guitar (A3-D5)] – Zack is the band’s lead guitarist and also a talented songwriter. He desperately wants to impress his father, who’s usually too busy with work to take an interest in his family.

 

 

FREDDIE HAMILTON [Onstage Drums (A3-D5)] – Freddie loves a bit of rowdiness and noise…perfect for a great drummer. Freddie’s own father doesn’t see their ability and is constantly belittling.

 

LAWRENCE [Onstage Piano/Keyboard (A3-D#5)] – Awkward and lacking in confidence, Lawrence is hesitant to attempt something “cool”, like joining a band, but he soon turns out to be a fantastic keyboardist.

KATIE [Onstage Bass Guitar (A3-D#5)] – Quiet and serious, Katie already played the cello, but switched to bass at Dewey’s suggestion to fill out the band.
