'The School of Rock musical was really good.
It was funny, had great music and a great storyline.The songs were really catchy.
I also thought it was really funny with some scenes that had everyone laughing out loud.
I liked the sets, I thought they looked extremely good, detailed and realistic. I thought all of the actors were amazing and really funny. The ending scene was amazing with everyone on stage coming together for the concert.
All and all this musical was funny with amazing music and a great storyline.'
