Watch stars and cast at School of Rock opening

School of Rock opened in London last night and we talked to celebrities on the red carpet ahead of the show.

Andrew Lloyd Webber said they opened the show earlier than they expected, but they found the kids so quickly they thought they'd do it now. He said: "I am incredibly pleased it was a hit on Broadway – these days it is so hard to get one."

Stars and celebrities including Cliff Richard, Michael McIntyre and Amanda Abbington attended the launch at the New London Theatre.
