The Plot

The year is 2302. On the planet Mall, music and freedom have been outlawed by the tyrannical Globalsoft Corporation, led by the Killer Queen. Into this world comes Galileo Figaro – dreamer, ‘musician’, and totally unique. When he meets noodle bar server Scaramouche Saturnalia, they begin a journey to find others like them – those with the passion to ROCK! Along with rockers Buddy Marotti and Oz Ozzel they set out to overthrow the Killer Queen and her villainous regime, in a fight to save Mall’s very soul…

With hits like ‘We Will Rock You’, ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’, ‘Under Pressure’, ‘Somebody To Love’ and ‘Fat Bottomed Girls’, this musical is a celebration of Queen’s greates’t hits.

The Characters

The show centers around a group of misfit rebels who fight against the all-powerful Globalsoft Corporation. The rebels are led by the enigmatic Galileo Figaro, and include the tough-as-nails Punk Queen, Scaramouche. They must band together to find their true identity and save rock and roll before it’s destroyed forever.

The Music

We Will Rock You – The Musical is a musical by Ben Elton which is based on the songs of rock band Queen. The musical tells the story of a group of rebels who fight against an evil corporation that controls the world’s music.

The music of We Will Rock You – The Musical is, unsurprisingly, made up entirely of Queen songs. The majority of the tracks are taken from the band’s album A Night at the Opera, including “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “We Will Rock You”, “Somebody to Love”, and “Death on Two Legs”. Other Queen hits such as “Radio Ga Ga”, “I Want to Break Free”, “Another One Bites the Dust”, and “Crazy Little Thing Called Love” are also featured in the musical.

The Set

The We Will Rock You musical is set in a time not too long from now, on a planet not too unlike our own, in a universe where music almost doesn’t exist. Imagine a future world where there are no rock bands, no guitars and no musical instruments – except for one. “The axe” is the most powerful musical instrument in the galaxy, and only those who learn to play it can hope to become “The Property Of The Corporation”.

In this future world, Globalsoft is all-powerful. Its corporate slogan is “Download, burn, reboot” and its anthem is “No More Fun”. The populace are fed a diet of synthetic pop via mind-numbing television programmes and sinister propaganda – all controlled by the all-seeing eye of Big Brother… sorry… we mean Globalsoft!

But there are those who believe that things can be different… that somewhere out there, there must be somebody who can save them from this living hell…

The Costumes

The costumes in We Will Rock You are truly incredible. Designed by Tim Hatley, they are a mix of futuristic and retro, with a bit of a punk edge. The costumes help to create the unique world of the musical, and each character has their own style that reflects their personality.

The Choreography

The trailer features the original choreography from the hit West End show. It is set to the song “We Will Rock You” by Queen.

The Lighting

One of the most important aspects of any musical is the lighting. It can set the tone for the entire show, and We Will Rock You is no exception. The lighting for this musical was designed by award-winning lighting designer Howard Harrison. Harrison is known for his work on some of the most successful musicals of all time, including Les Misérables and The Phantom of the Opera.

The lighting in We Will Rock You is nothing short of spectacular. Harrison has used a variety of different techniques to create an incredible visual experience for the audience. From spotlights to strobe lights, Harrison has used every tool in his arsenal to make this musical look and feel like a rock concert.

The Sound

Hearing the sound for the first time, you might think, “this is not my cup of tea.” It is very different from what you would expect from a musical. The music is mostly synthesized and there are no traditional show tunes that you might expect. The sound works though, it is just very different.

After an epic battle between the forces of good and evil, the fate of the world hangs in the balance. Can love triumph over hate? Will freedom defeat tyranny?
