22/11/10 - GLEE TOURS CONCERTS TO LONDON & MANCHESTER
Hot on the heels of concert events in four American cities earlier this year, Fox TV and Glee co-creator Ryan Murphy announced last Friday (19 November 2010) the television cast will play arena concerts in London, Manchester and Dublin in June 2011.
Glee Live! In Concert! brings stars the stars of the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning TV show including Lea Michele (Rachel), Cory Monteith (Finn), Amber Riley (Mercedes), Chris Colfer (Kurt), Kevin McHale (Artie), Jenna Ushkowitz (Tina), Mark Salling (Puck), Dianna Agron (Quinn), Naya Rivera (Santana), Heather Morris (Brittany), Harry Shum, Jr. (Mike), Chord Overstreet (Sam) and Darren Criss (Blaine) across the Atlantic to perform newly created and well-known numbers from the show.
A string of Glee-based tribute shows have recently filled British theatres and arenas building on the popularity of the show, which is broadcast in the UK on E4. Glee features a cast of broadway musical theatre stars including Lea Michele (Spring Awakening), Kristin Chenoweth (Wicked) and Matthew Morrison (Hairspray) singing popular rock and pop songs including the trademark "Don't Stop Believin'". Recent episodes have been dedicated to the music of Britney Spears, Madonna and - for Halloween - The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Glee Live! In Concert! will only play two British cities during its European tour, calling at Manchester's MEN Arena on 22 June for one night only, followed by two dates at London's O2 Arena on 25 and 26 June 2011. The tour then continues to Ireland, playing Dublin's O2 Arena on 2 and 3 July.
Tickets for London dates go on sale on 26th November at Premier Events. Call 020 7283 4040 and reserve your Glee tickets!
