‘High School Musical 2 Live on Stage!’ to give it its full title began a four and a half month tour at the New Wimbledon Theatre in London on the 22nd of August. It stars Les Dennis and the winner of yet another television search for a star – Liam Doyle plays Troy after winning a vote on the ITV show GMTV.

The story sees the gang working at an exclusive country club. The show climaxes with the Midsummer Night’s Talent Show.
