School of Rock - The Musical (Chicago)

School of Rock - The Musical (Chicago)

SCHOOL OF ROCK is a New York Times Critics’ Pick and “AN INSPIRING JOLT OF ENERGY, JOY AND MAD SKILLZ!” (Entertainment Weekly). Based on the hit film, this hilarious new musical follows Dewey Finn, a wannabe rock star posing as a substitute teacher who turns a class of straight-A students into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. This high-octane smash features 14 new songs from ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER, all the original songs from the movie and musical theater’s first-ever kids rock band playing their instruments live on stage.

I took my 10 Year old daughter. She goes to the School of Rock but had no idea what the musical was. She loved it and that kids like her were actually playing onstage!

Loved School of Rock. Had great dress circle seats. Kids who play all the instruments and sing were fantastic. I saw lots of children in the audience who really enjoyed the show. Catchy songs. Highly recommended.

You have to take time to go see School of Rock! It was just like I remembered the movie! The music was awesome and the acting on point! Those kids were so talented between their great voices and how talented they were on their instruments. I would definitely go see this again. It was a great evening.

I wasn t sure what to expect from this show. Once I attended I decided it was not bad, but I was disappointed that they did not dedicate more time to let the kids shine. Clearly the children are very talented musicians, I really wish they would have allowed more showcasing and celebrated them. Just my personal wish.

Stereotypes placed on children, jokes done in poor taste, a disgusting un-likable main character that gets kudos for doing nothing spectacular. This musical was so awful had I not been there with a group of people I would of walked out for sure. I cringed so many times at the terrible humor that was tacky and inappropriate. I also HATED how Patty who was a strong female who obviously had worked for the success in her life was portrayed as a nagging annoyance and Dewey who was whiny and free-loader was the hero. It was just bad all around.

School of Rock is a must see. Each and every actor had amazing voices. The child actors had unbelievable talent. Dewey made the show. The young lady who played the shy child who sang Amazing Grace and the performance solo knocked the vocals out of the park.

School of Rock was not the typical Broadway Performance my family and I'm used to attending, normally a lot of glitz and glam. The storyline was similar to the movie and extremely enjoyable. The actors and actresses were incredible as well as the young actors and actresses as musicians and vocalists...they should be so proud of themselves, as I'm sure their parents are as well. It would be nice to know their ages. Even though the scenery wasn't glitzy, it was appropriate for the show. The show is "any" age appropriate, but I would recommend being aware of the storyline prior to attending the show. Guests attending with me were appreciative for my recommendation to watch the movie prior to attending, guests in my group that had not seen the movie stated they struggled with the storyline at the beginning of the show but it did come together as the show moved along. Our seats were in the Dress Circle rows B and C and we had a wonderful view of the entire stage, plus the sound was amazing.

I received a call from Broadway in Chicago and the person told me that there was a problem with the seat I purchased so they moved me to a better seat! They moved me to orchestra center, 7 rows from the stage!!! Which was awesome!!!! Awesome service by Ticketmaster and BIC!!! The show was awesome!!!! The cast was great! and the kids are sooooo talented!!!!!!! :)

School of Rock was entertaining and inspiring because of the young and talented performers, but the theater experience was lacking. Multiple show interruptions to seat late theater goers (even though there were lots of empty seats in the back two rows), ushers with bright flashlights up and down the aisles during quiet scenes, ushers loudly snacking throughout the show, audience cell phone disruptions\u2014 just too much to endure during an expensive theater experience.

Quite possibly the worst musical of this millennium. Mostly mediocre performances from the adults and most of the kids went in and out of tune. I could tolerate some of that if the lyrics and music weren't so bad.

I wish I had not seen the original movie before experiencing this show because Jack Black just has no equal. The kids in this adaptation really steal the show with their amazing talent. It is a fun night at the theater, and the last scene leaves you feeling like you were also cast in the show. Definitely see this show!

If you're a fan of the movie or a rock fan, it's a great time. Good music, good performances (the lead is an excellent stand-in for Jack Black). Great work with set designs. And the kids play their own instruments live on stage. There might be some language here and there, but all things said, it's a great show to bring kids to.

Hands down best musical we have seen in a while. If you like the movie, you will LOVE the musical. Entire cast is incredibly talented but the children are exceptional. We were blown away by their musical abilities at such a young age. It was difficult not to tap and sing along because it was a rocking good time!

This show was so entertaining for all ages. Knowing that the kids actually played their own instruments made it that much more enjoyable. Great show for families or as an introduction to theater for kids. PARENTS: Kids would enjoy this show but please make sure they can sit through a 2 1/2 hour show. Some kids in front of us got restless and moved so much it was annoying.
