Upcoming Auditions

 

While there are many roles that do not involve playing an instrument on stage, there are 5 roles that involve playing instruments on stage. (see the audition information on the website) Also, while we have roles for any age of adults, there are no roles for younger children who can't pass for a teen. Thanks! Looking forward to seeing you all at auditions!

Based on the Paramount movie by Mike White
Book by Julian Fellowes
Lyrics by Glenn Slater
New Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber

Rock got no reason, rock got no rhyme… You better get me to school on time! Andrew Lloyd Webber’s School of Rock – The Musical is a two-hour, two-act show (plus intermission), based on the hit movie. The play 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?

Auditions will be held at St. Matthew's Ev. Lutheran Church (Downstairs)
