Glee Launches North American Tour in May

If you didn’t happen to be one of the almost 27 million Gleeks on Sunday that watched the “Glee” episode after the Super Bowl, don’t worry. This spring you’ll be getting your chance to grab hold of the the runaway success.

The Glee cast is once again hitting the road. On May 21, a North American tour of 16 cities will kick off in Las Vegas at Mandalay Bay Event Center. Thirteen Glee series cast members, including Cory Monteith in the role of Finn, Lea Michele in the role of Rachel, Amber Riley in the role of Mercedes, Chris Colfer in the role of Kurt, Kevin McHale in the role of Artie, Jenna Ushkowitz in the role of Tina, Mark Salling in the role of Puck, Dianna Agron in the role of Quinn, Naya Rivera in the role of Santana, Heather Morris in the role of Brittany, Chord Overstreet in the role of Sam, Darren Criss in the role of Blaine and Harry Shum Jr. who plays Mike will star.

An all-new production will be performed by the “Glee” gang based on this Golden Globe as well as Emmy winning show. Ryan Murphy, series co-creator said, the enthusiasm and love from the concerts last year was so moving. We knew we needed to do this again.

Something magical happens when thousands of “Gleeks” come together and share the night with the cast. The tour is just one small thing we can do to thank them for all of their incredible support right from the start.

The concerts will be featuring live performances of many of season one and two’s most beloved moments including “Don’t Stop Believin’,” the show’s anthem, ““My Life Would Suck Without You,” “It’s My Life,” “Empire State of Mind and “Toxic.”

In a statement to announce the tour, Overstreet said, this year joining the cast has been like I just hopped onto a fast-moving train. I’ve had so many amazing experiences already. However getting the opportunity to perform live on stage all across Europe, Canada and the U.S. takes the cake. It’s too cool.
