Producers published a full venue routing this month while casting and creative details remain to be announced.
Overview
- Producers David Ian for Crossroads Live with Barry and Fran Weissler announced the 2027 UK and Ireland tour in June 2026, listing dates and venues across the country and Ireland.
- The tour is scheduled to open at New Wimbledon Theatre on February 5, 2027, according to the published routing.
