About this Event

Encore Arts are delighted to be returning to Parabola Arts Centre with our biggest production to date, School of Rock! 


Bringing together a phenomenal cast from Cheltenham Youth Theatre and Bromsgrove Youth Theatre, it's set to be an amazing weekend, showcasing the talent of young performers spanning two counties!


'Rock got no reason, rock got no rhyme… You better get me to school on time!

Based on the hit movie, School of Rock follows Dewey Finn, a failed, wannabe rock star who decides to earn an extra bit of cash by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. There, he turns a class of straight–A pupils into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band. But can he get them to the Battle of the Bands without their parents and the school’s headmistress finding out?'

Based on the Paramount movie by Mike White

Script by Julian Fellowes

Lyrics by Glenn Slater

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber
