Set against cheerleading, high school politics and budding romances, Bring It On the Musical played Adelaide in 2017 and came back for a return season in 2018.

Campbell, cheer royalty at Truman High, is forced to move to neighbouring Jackson High. There is no cheer squad to speak of. Against the odds she helps turn the local dance crew into a powerhouse for Nationals.
