Synopsis
All aboard THE TIME MACHINE School Musical!
Join the marvelously eccentric Professor and his team of travelers as they journey backwards and forwards through time.
In the past, they encounter a pair of rapping dinosaurs, play musical chairs with the Knights of the Round Table, and perform an unexpected line dance with Julius Caesar. They nearly alter the course of history when they land on Amelia Earhart’s runway and interrupt Neil Armstrong’s first steps on the moon!
Their hilarious adventures continue until they find themselves a hundred years into the future, where they are confronted with an Earth deeply affected by climate change. After an entertaining exchange with two future humans, they realize that we must change how we live today to protect tomorrow.

What Teachers Are Saying…
“The Time Machine school musical was perfect for our larger school as it offered multiple lead roles for many students to feature as actors. Also the episodic nature of the script gave groups the opportunity to dress up in ways that appealed to children and their parents/caregivers.
I appreciated that the Music, Scripts, Prop Lists, Casting and Backing Music was all prepared as part of the package. This
saved me a great deal of effort as I would usually create a musical myself. It makes it so much easier to have all the preparation included in the kit.
The RockED staff were always very helpful, supportive and punctual.”
Sorrento PS
“Our school chose The Time Machine because it fitted with our curriculum focus and our specialist had been involved in other RockED Musicals previously. We appreciated that everything was included, script, music, costume suggestions etc. The package was hugely time saving and very good value for money.
Our students thought that the play was great fun and liked the idea of time travel. Also they loved singing the songs and that everyone had a part in the play. We had some really amazing feedback from our school community. They loved the whole performance, especially the singing. ‘You Can Rock n Roll’ was a popular song.
Alison was very helpful, even sending through the electronic link prior to payment, which made a huge difference, as our music specialist is only part time.
Overall, we were very happy with The Time Machine.”
