We Will Rock You


By Queen and Ben Elton

 

From the company that brought you WICKED, LES MISERABLES and JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR comes the world’s most rocking slice of musical theatre heaven.

Over 15 million theatregoers in 17 countries have been thrilled by We Will Rock You, a musical based on the songs of British rock band Queen with a book by Ben Elton.

The musical tells the story of a globalized future without musical instruments. A handful of rock rebels, the Bohemians, fight against the all-powerful Globalsoft company and its boss, the Killer Queen, to find the unlimited power of freedom, individuality and the rebirth of the age of Rock!

Premiering on the West End in London in 2002, the musical ran for over a decade. With Queen hits like Radio Gaga, I Want To Break Free, Somebody To Love, Killer Queen, Don’t Stop Me Now, We Are The Champions, We Will Rock You, and of course Bohemian Rhapsody, We Will Rock You  reflects the scale and spectacle that marked Queen’s live performances and earned the band its pinnacle position in rock history. It is a guaranteed great night out at the theatre.
