With regards to 2020 dates, the production has said that: "At the moment it is uncertain when the Six UK Tour will resume. Many of the venues we are due to visit are making their own internal decisions as to when performances in their theatres may resume. These vary depending upon the individual needs of each theatre."

More performances are expected to be announced soon, with Birmingham Hippodrome as one venue for example that is in the midst of confirming new autumn 2021 show dates and emailing existing customers. Casting for the 2021 tour is to be revealed.
