Rugby Theatre is ready to rock as Queen musical takes to the stage

Andy Morris 7 hours ago   0

READY to rock – a feel-good musical featuring Queen’s biggest hits is next up at Rugby Theatre.

We Will Rock You features more than 20 of Queen’s biggest songs, including Bohemian Rhapsody, Somebody to Love, Don’t Stop Me Now and We Are the Champions.

With a story and script written by Ben Elton, the show is set in a dystopian future where musical instruments are banned and rock music is dead. The evil Killer Queen has crushed creativity, and only computer-generated sounds remain.

Enter outcasts Galileo and Scaramouche, who join a group of rebel ‘Bohemians’ searching for one true riff that will set the world free.




The show’s director, Emma Bright, says audiences can expect high-octane choreography, futuristic costumes and impressive guitar solos from the live band.

She added: “Join us for this electrifying musical that is a celebration of individuality, rebellion and the power of live music – it’s packed with iconic hits.


“We’ve got larger-than-life characters, powerhouse vocalists and a cast ready to bring the house down, so we guarantee audiences will leave buzzing.

“Tickets will sell out but the show must go on – don’t miss your chance to experience the ultimate rock musical.”

We Will Rock You runs from June 20 to 27, including a matinee on Saturday June 27. Visit www.rugbytheatre.co.uk or call 01788 541234 for tickets.
