WELLINGTON Operatic Society is ready to rock n’ roll with their electrifying production of School of Rock: The Musical which is coming to the Wellesley Theatre this May.

Based on the smash-hit movie starring Jack Black, with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, School of Rock tells the story of Dewey Finn, a failed rock star who fakes his way into a teaching job at a prestigious prep school. But instead of textbooks and timetables, he turns his strait-laced class into a full-blown rock band and sets out to win the Battle of the Bands.

School of Rock: The Musical will show from Wednesday to Saturday, May 21-24, including a Saturday matinee performance.
