This Just In: Rock Not Dead!

[László]

If Rock is dead, how does one explain this??

My granddaughter (second from right, front row) is playing the role of Summer in School of Rock for a 7 week run starting April 12, at the Paramount in Aurora (IL). These kids don't look like they think Rock is dead!

Looks alive to me. And the kids will be playing their own instruments. The cast is VERY excited to be in this show!

Be there, or be square.

On her behalf, thanks!

I realize I'm utterly insufferable for posting this stuff, so apologies to all. But honestly, I just can't help it!

She's 11! I'm really excited for her, and for my daughter and her family.

This isn't a school show like my kids were in - that would be plenty fun enough - it's her 4th professional musical theater gig in 1 1/2 years!

No worries. You have pride then don’t be bashful! Shout it out to the world. This is such a special event in all of your lives.

My son is a professional body builder and we have travelled to every show he has been in. I am very proud of him. I am the crazy mother screaming in the audience when he does his posing routine. He has worked very diligently and is highly dedicated to his craft. Different strokes for different folks. Nothing like parents pride in their children!! I have pictures, albums.

That is fantastic! It's great to see the kids succeed and do the things they love. It certainly is something to share.

My son.

Whoa!!! Awesome!! Like a classical sculpture.

 

[Lola]

Perfect wording because his class that he competes in is called Classic Physique.

 

[RickP]

Rock lives!

 

[Lola]

Whoa!!! Awesome!! Like a classical sculpture.

We understand each other’s obsession. He really understands me and I him.

 

[AaeCee]

My son.

Wow! We look almost exactly alike!

Well, our beards, that is. Except mine's gray. And not as well sculpted.

Awesome!

That's a very strong bond. It's great.

 

[Chicken hawk]

I'd be pretty darn proud too

The Paramount is an excellent 1920's stage theater. I'm very excited for your family and just may have swing down there and see this performance!

 

[Aahzz]

Awesome!

Awesome! I plan to see it at least a couple of times. Chicago regional theater is really good stuff.

This is awesome, Les! She's had a great run the last few years. The Paramount is a cool place. Been there many times.

Awesome Les (Laszlo?!?) I’ve guessed I’ve missed some things in my absence

Loved School of Rock and a live show with children playing the instruments would be great to see! It’s a long way to the top…
