The Barrow's Applefest show is ready to rock.

Literally.
​
There are kids playing real instruments and rocking out in this production of "School of Rock."
Picture
The show opens Friday at 7:30 p.m. and runs Saturday at 7:30 p.m., Sunday at 2 p.m and the follow week they have a special Thursday night show October 5, Friday , Oct . 6 and Saturday, Oct. 7 at 7:30 p.m.

This is tech week so they have a lot to work out yet, but come Friday lights will go up and this group of folks will tell us a story about giving your kids an opportunity to be who they are and respect that they might know something we, as adults either don't know, or have forgotten.
Picture
"School of Rock," might be farcical, but it hammers home the idea that youth have something to say.
Picture
And talent lies in many forms.

And if we're not too full of our conventions and listen... we might realize there is something deep in every one of us that, given a chance, can shine. And the beauty of this message, in this show, is that the adults also can re-learn this lesson that they suppressed.
Picture
The folks in this show have been working for months, especially the lead role of Dewey, played by Randy Moorehead, and the young musicians who will be an actual band playing their own instruments.
Picture
And singers... there are more than 20 singers in this show and the kids are also knocking this out of the park with powerful choruses and solos.

Picture
Moorehead might not be Jack Black, but he is Dewey in this production as he works seamlessly with the kids and his own guitars to bring this character a unique breath.

Moorhead said it was the role he always wanted to play and it shows. His kid bandmates will also likely blow you away realizing how young they are, yet still rocking out with a professional sound. And if we didn't emphasize this enough, - it is actually the kids playing the instruments and singing.

And the music is good too.
