First casting announced for tour of Bring It On

Selladoor Worldwide has just  announced that Amber Davies will star as ‘Campbell’ (the role played on Broadway by Taylor Louderman (Regina George in Mean Girls), alongside Louis Smith as ‘Cameron’ in the new  UK and Ireland tour of BRING IT ON THE MUSICAL which kicks off at Birmingham Hippodrome on 2nd June 2020. Further casting news to follow.

Winner of ITV’s Love Island in 2017, Amber Davies made her professional stage debut in 2019  as ‘Judy Bernly’ in Dolly Parton’s 9 to 5 The Musical at the Savoy Theatre and subsequently on the UK tour.  Whilst training at Urdang Academy, her credits included ‘Campbell’ in “Bring It On The Musical” and ‘Downing’ in “My Favourite Year”.

 Four-time gymnastic Olympic medallist Louis Smith  won the first British gymnastic medal in 100 years at the Beijing Olympics. Following his success at the London 2012 Olympic Games Louis later won that year’s BBC Strictly Come Dancing, before going on to win the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas Special in 2014.  On stage he has appeared in “Rip It Up” in both the West End and on tour. 

Cheer-royalty and newly crowned Squad Captain, Campbell, should be embarking on her most cheertastic senior year at Truman High School. When she’s forced to move to the neighbouring hard-knock Jackson High, Campbell fears her life is over.  But an unlikely friendship catapults Campbell back into contention with a powerhouse squad and the fire to achieve the impossible.


Inspired by the 2000 film of the same name, BRING IT ON THE MUSICAL features an original score by the multi award winning creator of “Hamilton”, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Pulitzer Prize winning Tom Kitt, composer of “Next To Normal”. The book is written by the Tony Award winning writer of “Avenue Q”, Jeff Whitty and the lyrics are by both Lin-Manuel Miranda and writer of the stage adaptation of “High Fidelity”, Amanda Green.


BRING IT ON THE MUSICAL takes audiences on a high-flying, energy-fuelled journey which tackles friendship, jealousy, betrayal and forgiveness – wrapped up in explosive choreography and tricks.
