Has anyone heard any rumours of casting for School Of Rock? I would have imagined some casting would have been announced so far. I was watching the film last night and was trying to dream cast it in my head but found it pretty difficult. Does anyone know who took part in readings or workshops?
^ I know that the entire children's ensemble of Matilda auditioned all at once, so it could be really any number of kids who have been in that show, particularly the original ones who are a bit older now.
Georgi James would be perfect for one of the kid roles. She played July in the recent Annie revival and she does rock stuff and can play guitar if I remember correctly!
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle
Has anyone heard any rumors about the Joan Cusack role?

"I heard a rumor that Sierra Boggess will play the principal. I've always thought that Mitch Jarvis would be perfect as Dewey "
That's...interesting. I can't say I can picture that.
Mitch Jarvis would be a fun Dewey.

I agree. I can't at all promise that the rumor I heard was accurate, btw. The person I heard it from seemed certain, but I can't promise that they are a reliable source. I hope BWW doesn't see this and make one of those dumb rumor articles like they do sometimes.
Imogen Lloyd Webber has said that the cast is amazing and she is just blown away every time she hears and sees the kids perform. I'm sure the cast will be announced after the Tonys madness dies down so the news isn't overshadowed by the awards.
I’m so excited for Analisa! https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Theres-a-New-Headmistress-in-Town-Meet-SCHOOL-OF-ROCKs-New-Principal-Analisa-Learning-20171103
