- Limited to 2 tickets per patron, per performance.

- Winter Garden Theatre box office hours are: Monday - Saturdays between 10:00 am - 8:00 pm and Sundays from 12:00 pm - 6:00pm.

Per press notes, "SCHOOL OF ROCK - THE MUSICAL follows Dewey Finn, a failed wannabe rock star who decides to earn a few extra bucks by posing as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school. Completely disinterested in academic work, Dewey decides to create his own curriculum, turning his class into a guitar-shredding, bass-slapping, mind-blowing rock band."

Based on the 2003, School of Rock an original score by Andrew Lloyd Webber and lyricist Glenn Slater, with a book by Julian Fellowes and direction by Laurence Connor. Music from the film is also featured.
