A well-known musical is coming to a Piatt County high school. 

Peyton Lents and Hayden Rice are a part of the Cerro Gordo High School Theater Department, and they explain that their spring musical this year is School of Rock. The show tells the story of a couch surfer turned substitute teacher, who enters his students in the Battle of the Bands. 

Auditions for the show took place in December of first semester, and since then, the cast has been working hard to prepare for the performance. Rice indicates that he is looking forward to the participation of the audience during the show. 

Putting this musical together has not been an easy task. With a small cast and crew, Lents says there are a lot of moving parts to make sure the show goes on without any bumps. 

If you'd like to see School of Rock performed by the students of Cerro Gordo High School, purchase tickets for any of their four showings on April 24th, 25th, or 26th. Tickets can be purchased at the door.
