Disney’s High School Musical, the inexplicably crap television hit, is hitting the road with a nationwide concert tour. And Dirty Dancing is taking London by storm.

High School Musical: The Concert expands the Disney Channel franchise that has already produced a triple-platinum selling soundtrack and a planned movie sequel.
Tickets for High School Musical concerts go on sale Nov. 4, with one Canadian stop, in Toronto, planned. The schedule for the tour that concludes Jan. 28 in Las Vegas:
