School movie smash brought to the stage

THE show everyone is talking about comes to the West Midlands next week - High School Musical Live on Stage.

The movie proved to be a smash hit but will its first UK tour match the hype?

As the school prepares to stage its annual show will everyone's favourite sports player Troy and class smartie Gabriella gain wining roles in the musical - and with each other?

The action kicks off at Wolverhampton's Grand Theatre from March 10-15 (www.grandtheatre.co.uk, 01902 429212) and then comes to Birmingham Hippodrome (www.birmingham hippodrome.com, 0870 730 1234) from June 31 to July 7.
