WhatsOnStage caught up with David Fynn ahead of his final performances as the lead in School of Rock in the West End.

Fynn plays Dewey Finn, a musician who pretends to be his friend so he can get a job as a teacher. He then puts together a band with his pupils who enter into the Battle of the Bands.

We asked David to explain some of the hilarious tweets he's posted over the years – watch for Game of Thrones deaths, brutal blue tick jibes and all the feels:

Fynn originated the part of Dewey in the West End when the show had its UK premiere in 2016. The show will close on 1 March before embarking on a major UK tour in 2021, with dates and venues still to be announced.
