A young Hobsons Bay star will dial up the volume at St Kilda’s National Theatre next month in Theatrical Inc’s School of Rock the Musical.
Amelia Durham, 13, has landed the lead role of Summer Hathaway in the musical adaptation of the 2003 cult classic.
The Williamstown High School student will grace the stage from 1-9 November.
Theatrical Inc is promising an energetic and explosive take on the cult classic following Dewey Finn’s journey of turning a class of prep-school students into a high-voltage rock band.
The musical is directed by Regional Tony Award winner Cody Riker, featuring musical direction by Mal Fawcett and choreography by Jaimee White.
Executive producer Andrew Gyopar said Theatrical Inc was delighted to bring the show to Melbourne.
“This show encapsulates everything we believe in … chasing your dreams with heart and humour – and finding your own voice,“ he said.
