The Amarillo Little Theatre is excited to “rock hardcore” as we present School of Rock as the final show of our 98th season. Based on the hilarious 2003 film starring Jack Black, this smash hit 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. There he turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band – sensationally performed live by ALT’s young actors every night with roof-raising energy! With music by Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber (Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar) and winner of the Laurence Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Music, this talent-packed musical will rock the roof off the Mainstage!
Join us for this high-energy musical adventure celebrating music, individuality and staying true to yourself, ROCKING the Allen Shankles Mainstage April 30 - May 17! Tickets can be reserved by emailing lissa@amarillolittletheatre.org or online at amarillolittletheatre.org. Mark your calendars and reserve your tickets today so you don’t miss the electrifying score, infectious energy and roof-raising talent in ALT’s School of Rock.
