Imagine a world without rock
music. A world under the control of
an all-powerful global company and
its tyrannical boss, the Killer Queen.
Scaramouche and Galileo, two young
outsiders, cannot come to terms
with this bleak conformist reality.
They join the Bohemians, a handful
of rock rebels, and embark on the
search to find the unlimited power
of freedom, love and rock music!
Since 2002 over 16 million
theatregoers in 28 countries have
rocked out to this unique musical
based on the songs of Queen.
Written by Ben Elton (The Young
Ones, Blackadder, Popcorn) this
futuristic comedy is based around
more than 24 of Queen’s biggest hits
including: We Are The Champions,
Radio Ga Ga, I Want To Break Free,
Somebody To Love, Killer Queen,
Don’t Stop Me Now, Under Pressure,
Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One
Bites The Dust and, of course, We
Will Rock You.
Note: This production contains smoke
haze, strobe lighting and loud Rock
Music!
