WE WILL ROCK YOU TOUR

Adam Strong (Rock of Ages) as Khashoggi, Michael McKell/Buddy and David-Michael Johnson (Jesus Christ Superstar) will return to the show in the role of Brit.

In the year 2309 the earth - now known as Planet Mall - is governed by the Killer Queen, who is the head of the Globalsoft Corporation. Conformity reigns.

We Will Rock You charts the journey of the Bohemians who are a small group of freedom fighters raging against the Killer Queen. They believe in free thought and creative music, with the heroes Galileo and Scaramouche desperate to recapture the Golden Age (1990 or whatever) - a time they call 'Rhapsody'.

This is achieved using Queen's greatest hits including "I Want to Break Free", "Under Pressure", "Who Wants to Live Forever", "A Kind of Magic", "Radio Ga Ga" and "We Will Rock You". The Killer Queen performs  some excellently descriptive numbers: "Play the Game", "Don't Stop Me Now" and "Another One Bites the Dust"

The production is directed by Ben Elton with Queen's Brian May and Roger Taylor as music supervisors. Arlene Phillips oversees the musical staging and choreography.

To help prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), we are sorry to confirm that all performances of this tour are cancelled up to 26 April 2020 when the situation will be reviewed.
