Welcome to the School of Rock! Based on the hit film, School of Rock: The Musical follows failed rock star wannabe Dewey Finn. Forced to come up with some rent money or be kicked to the street, Dewey poses as a substitute teacher at a prestigious prep school to earn some quick cash. But when he discovers the students are also highly talented musicians, Dewey hatches a plan to turn the uptight students into guitar-thrashing, bass-thumping, and drum-smashing rockers and enter them in the Battle of the Bands! But can he do it without the school, parents, or housemates finding out?
