Child Auditions for Musical Production "School of Rock"
Child auditions for the musical production of "School of Rock." Please see the details below. ONLY LOCAL TALENT WILL BE ACCEPTED. About the project: 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 tuner 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? Additional info: Please note: there is a production fee applied. Please perform 16 – 32 bars of a song in the style of the show.
