Based on the popular television show, Schoolhouse Rock Live! is a fun, educational show that teaches students and audiences of all ages learning is fun. The show features music and lyrics by Bob Dorough, Dave Frishberg, George Newall, Kathy Mandry, Lynn Ahrens and Tom Yohe; and a book by George Keating, Kyle Hall and Scott Ferguson. 

Tom, a school teacher nervous about his first day of teaching, tries to relax by watching TV. Suddenly, the Schoolhouse Rock kids appear in his building’s rec room and proceed to show him how to win his students over with imagination and music.  The beloved Schoolhouse Rock songs include "A Noun Is a Person, Place, or Thing,” “Conjunction Junction,” “I’m Just A Bill,” "Three Is a Magic Number” and "Unpack Your Adjectives." 

Schoolhouse Rock Live! JR is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International
