School Of Rock musical reveals UK 2021/2022 tour cast in full

Casting has been confirmed for the new UK tour of School of Rock The Musical.

Fresh from its acclaimed run in London’s West End, School Of Rock will hit the road for its first ever tour from September.

Based on the iconic movie of the same name, School Of Rock follows failed wannabe rockstar turned substitute teacher Dewey Finn who turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band.
