Green Day's explosive, award-winning Broadway musical American Idiot is now touring across the UK in 2016, direct from a hugely successful and critically acclaimed London run. X Factor finalist Amelia Lily will be reprising her critically acclaimed role, Whatsername, with further casting to be announced.
Winner of two Tony Awards® and the 2010 Grammy Award winner for Best Musical Show Album, American Idiot is the story of three boyhood friends, each searching for meaning in a post 9/11 world. The show features the music of Green Day with the lyrics of its lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong and book by Billie Joe Armstrong and Michael Mayer.

Now in 2015 they’ve been inducted in to the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame confirming their reputation as one of the biggest rock music acts of the last 20 years.
