The man who brought 'School of Rock' to the stage has sent a special good luck message to the cast of Les Quennevais' school production of the show.

Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber has sent his best wishes to the students 'for an enjoyable and successful run' adding that he hopes it all goes well.

His theatre troupe, The Really Useful Group, bought the stage rights to the iconic 2003 film and it opened on Broadway in 2015.

The school's headteacher, Sarah Hague, says Lloyd Webber is a 'class act' for taking the time to send his best wishes - making it 'the icing on the cake' for everyone involved with the show.

This good luck message to everyone involved in our production of 'School of Rock' from the man himself is just incredible!! If we weren't excited before we really are fired up now! Thank you Lord Lloyd Webber we will do you proud. This means such a lot ! 🎸🤘⁦@OfficialALW⁩ pic.twitter.com/s3OWPf8SkO
