Join The Waitlist

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Broadway and West End smash hit School of Rock is coming to The Civic, Auckland this September for a strictly limited season, and the waitlist for tickets is now open.

Based on the hit movie, School of Rock follows Dewey Finn, a wannabe rock star forced to earn some extra cash by posing as a teacher at a prestigious prep school. But Dewey isn’t going to teach his straight-laced students algebra or arithmetic – these kids are going to learn what it takes to become the greatest rock‘n’roll band of all time. All he needs to do is get his students to the Battle of the Bands, dodging strict teachers and pushy parents on the way to teaching these pint-sized prodigies what it means to truly rock.

With a new score by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyrics by three-time Tony Award nominee Glenn Slater, School of Rock The Musical features an award-winning cast of adults as well as an incredible kids ensemble rocking out live.

After the film took the world by storm in 2003, the musical made its world premiere in December 2015 at Broadway’s Winter Garden Theatre, smashing box office records and earning four Tony Award nominations. The West End production opened in November 2016 at the New London Theatre, winning both the 2017 Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in Music and the 2017 WhatsOnStage Award for Best New Musical.
