BRING IT ON: THE MUSICAL is the explosive new musical comedy that raises the stakes on over-the-top high school rivalries.

BRING IT ON: THE MUSICAL combines an exciting fresh sound, gravity-defying choreography, and a thrilling story to create a total theatrical event worth cheering for.

More than 10,000 fans are cheering for the musical at the show's official Facebook page, and the cast made a video to celebrate - check it out below!
