The popular Disney channel movie High School Musical 2 is set to come to the London stage. Directed by Jeff Calhoun, High School Musical 2 Live on Stage! will play the Wimbledon Theatre, prior to a U.K. tour. Performances begin in Wimbledon on August 22, 2009.
High School Musical 2 Live on Stage! features a book by David Simpatico, who also adapted the stage version of the original High School Musical. The story follows the East High Wildcats—Troy, Gabriella, Taylor and Chad—as they start their summer jobs at an exclusive country club, owned by Ryan and Sharpay's family. The action builds up to the country club's Midsummer Night's Talent Show, complete with squabbling, testing friendships and double-crossing. The musical features the songs from the chart-topping film soundtrack, including "What Time Is It?", "You Are the Music" and "Fabulous".
Following the Wimbledon run, the tour will play the Plymouth Theatre Royal (September 7-12), Sheffield Lyceum (September 14-19), Oxford New Theatre (September 21-26), Manchester Opera House (September 28-October 10), Brighton Centre (October 15-18), Wolverhampton Grand Theatre (October 20-24), Southampton Mayflower (October 26-November 7), Leeds Grand Theatre (November 9-14), Belfast Opera House (November 16-21) and Birmingham Alexandra (December 15-January 2).
The production features choreography by Lisa Stevens and scenic design by Kenneth Foy. The cast is still to be announced. The musical is produced by Stage Entertainment U.K. Ltd. in association with Disney Theatrical Productions.
