About the Show

Ben Elton's dystopian musical features the iconic songs of the British rock group Queen.

Ben Elton returns to direct a new 20th anniversary tour of a musical which had its London premiere in 2002 and became one of the West End's longest running musicals.

Set 300 years in the future, 'We Will Rock You' imagines a world in which a large monopolising corporation Globalsoft has outlawed live music and destroyed all instruments. It's up to the rebellious Bohemians to restore music to its former glory.

Featuring the classic songs of the rock group Queen such as 'We Are the Champions', 'Somebody to Love' and 'Under Pressure'. This production is recommended for ages 10+.

Awesome, Weird, Epic, Edgy, Entertaining

See it if You love Queen music and want to see their awesome songs performed in a suitably epic way with some kind of plot weaving them together.

Don't see it if You want a good plot - it was very weird and sometimes clutching at straws to link the songs together.

Fanulous, Entertaining, Absorbing

See it if If you like Queen then that’s your answer

Don't see it if Don’t go and ruin someone else’s evening

Ambitious, Clever, Great singing, Epic, Entertaining

See it if The music speaks for itself.The performers voices are superb and so amazing, it’s worth going only for that if nothing else!Ok but weak plot

Don't see it if Queens style of rock music isn’t your cup of tea. A very exciting or powerful story is what you are expecting.

Excruciating, Disappointing, Cliched

See it if If you love Queen music enough to sit through a paper thin plot with a script written on what must have been a very bad day for Ben Elton

Don't see it if Just don't see it. Spend money on a decent musical

The standout performance comes from Elena Skye as Scaramouche. This modern classic of a musical isn't entirely at ease in an ultra-contemporary revival, but is nonetheless a thoroughly entertaining celebration of an iconic set of songs.
