High School Musical

About this experience

What is High School Musical on stage? High School Musical is the stage musical of the Disney Channel film, following Troy Bolton, Gabriella Montez and the students of East High as basketball, friendships and the school musical collide. This production celebrates 20 years since the 2006 film became a global hit. It is the first new UK production of the musical, rather than a copy of the original staging, and transfers to London's Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre after a season at Lowry in Salford. The score includes Breaking Free, Get'cha Head in the Game, Stick to the Status Quo and We're All In This Together. Who is in the cast of High School Musical in London? High School Musical in London stars Harry Judd as Coach Bolton, Tobias Turley as Troy, Leonor Correia as Gabriella, Caitlin Tipping as Sharpay and Luke Bayer as Ryan, with KayCee Stroh, from the original film, as Ms Darbus. They are joined by Char Burnett as Taylor McKessie, Jordan Benjamin as Chad Danforth, Simeon Beckett as Zeke Baylor, Olivia O'Connor as Martha Cox, Yna Tresvalles as Kelsi Nielson and Curtis Patrick as Jack Scott. Casting is subject to change. Who created this production of High School Musical? This production of High School Musical is co-directed by Joseph Houston and William Whelton, with choreography by Aaron Renfree. The book is by David Simpatico, with music adapted, arranged and produced by Bryan Louiselle. Set design is by Andrew Exeter, lighting by Rory Beaton, costumes by Sophia Pardon, sound by Matt Peploe and video design by George Reeve, with musical supervision by Katy Richardson and musical direction by Audra Cramer. The staging turns the theatre into a full-scale, immersive basketball court. It is produced by Hope Mill Theatre and Chris Harper Productions in association with Lowry. How long is High School Musical, and is it suitable for children? High School Musical runs for about 2 hours 20 minutes, including an interval. The production recommends it for ages 6 and over. Children under 3 are not admitted, and everyone under 16 must be accompanied by and seated with an adult. Every audience member, whatever their age, needs their own ticket and seat. The show may include flashing lights and loud sound effects, which is worth knowing if you are booking for younger or sensitive children. Fans who already love the films usually get the most out of it, but the story is easy to follow if this is your first trip to East High. What should I know before booking High School Musical tickets? High School Musical tickets cannot be cancelled or rescheduled once booked, so check the date, time and party size before you pay. The season is limited, running only until 3 January 2027, and school-holiday and Christmas performances are likely to be popular. The production schedules captioned, audio-described and BSL-interpreted performances during the run; check the date you need before booking. Photography and filming are not allowed during the show. Where is High School Musical playing in London? High School Musical plays at Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre, 3 Fulton Road, Wembley HA9 0SP, from 12 October 2026 to 3 January 2027. The theatre is about a five-minute walk from Wembley Park station on the Jubilee and Metropolitan lines, around 12 minutes from Baker Street. There is no parking on site; Wembley Park's Red and Pink car parks are nearby, but public transport is the easier option. Allow extra time on event days at Wembley Stadium and OVO Arena Wembley, when the area is busy and mobile signal can be patchy, so save your tickets to your phone before you travel. Aim to arrive about 30 minutes before curtain: bags are checked at the door, and latecomers may have to wait for a suitable break, which may be the interval. The bars take card payments only. If your family loves big musicals, The Lion King and Matilda The Musical are also playing in London.
