Woodkirk Academy’s school production this year is School of Rock The Musical and this week, cast members and the band were delighted to meet actor David Fynn who played the role of Dewey in the musical in the West End.
David spent time watching some of the numbers as the cast and band rehearsed and met with Sixth Form student Harry, Woodkirk’s own Dewey, to offer some last-minute tips. Harry said “It was such a pleasure to work with David and we’re really grateful that he came to help. He gave me some brilliant advice on how to develop my persona as Dewey and made some great suggestions that will improve our show as a whole. It was a fantastic day and we’re really excited about Show Week.”
David said "Spending the day with the cast of School of Rock at Woodkirk Academy, I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek of the show and was absolutely blown away by what I saw. I laughed and I cried and that was only the first five minutes! It's an unbelievably talented cast, band and ensemble and the staff have done an incredible job putting it together. Woodkirk also have a leading man in Harry that is going to give Jack Black a run for his money; Woodkirk shall teach rock TO THE WORLD!"
