Tickets are $10 each and may be purchased in advance at the participating schools. Tickets will also be available at the door if the show does not sell out in advance. All ticket proceeds will be donated to American Red Cross Disaster Relief.

“A lot of families and friends were affected by this storm. I grew up going to the beaches of New Jersey and I think this is a great opportunity to give something back,” said Rob Groden, music director of School of Rock Newtown. “I’m very excited to have these schools get together for this important cause.”
