BIO

Stone met Trey Parker at the University of Colorado and together they made a short animated piece called, "The Spirit of Christmas." This launched their most recognized work, the critically acclaimed and award-winning television show, "South Park." The animated series is in its 15th season on Comedy Central and has won Stone 4 Emmy Awards and the coveted Peabody Award. South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, which Stone produced and co-wrote, earned an Oscar nomination and the first NY Film Critics Award for an animated film. In addition to "South Park," Stone has partnered with Parker on the low budget Cannibal! The Musical, the superhero comedy Orgazmo and the marionette action thriller Team America: World Police. Matt Stone is originally from Littleton, Colorado.

Review: SCHOOL OF ROCK THE MUSICAL at Argenta Contemporary Theatre
by Theresa Bertram - Mar 11, 2025

I am so happy I didn’t miss the mind-blowing, face melting production that was the SCHOOL OF ROCK THE MUSICAL at the Argenta Contemporary Theatre, which had a few shows pushed off to the last week of February due to the crazy Arkansas weather. On Tuesday, Feb. 25, I took my seat, not entirely sure what to expect, but from the very first power chord, I knew I was in for something special. The energy was electric, the cast was on fire, and the live music—played by the incredibly talented young performers—was nothing short of jaw-dropping. I was impressed!
