Glee star is very excited to be starting their UK tour at the end of June

Glee star Cory Monteith, aka Finn, says he’s “very excited” about bringing the Glee live tour to the UK for the first time.

The end of June sees the stage version of the TV hit show Glee starting its UK tour in Manchester, before going on to the London O2 Academy for a week.

Cory Monteith was interviewed by Radio 1’s Newsbeat and told the fans they were in for “a spectacular show” “It’s a huge rock concert basically – think Glee meets Kiss. It’s quite over the top and full of dancers and lights.

“It’s really an amazing show and I can’t wait for everyone to see it. If you don’t believe me just go on YouTube!”

The Glee cast is currently on tour in America and finding it fantastic that fans are dressing up as characters from the show.

Cory Monteith said “In Sacramento a whole group of people came dressed as the characters, We saw them in the crowd and they were holding up signs. It’s fantastic.”

Cory also gave a few hints in the interview as what to except from season three.

There’s gonna be a lot of transitions happening,” he admits.

“Rachel’s eyes are very much set on New York when we leave season two and Finn is very interested in rekindling a relationship with her.

“It’s gonna be those challenges – does she go to New York? Does she stay? That’s what season three is gonna be all about.”

“I think it’s going to be interesting to see Mr Schuester’s role – whether he pursues his Broadway dream or whether he stays at McKinley High.”

As well as being the part of the cast of Glee, Cory has also been pursuing a movie career, and just finished filming with Leighton Meester and Selena Gomez in a romantic comedy  called Monte Carlo,  three girls on holiday in Paris who get whisked away after one of them is mistaken for a British heiress.

looks like its going to be a good summer for Cory

Glee’s live tour starts in Manchester on 22 June, and Monte Carlo is due for UK release on 24 August.
