We Will Rock You ... Arlene Phillips and designs by Mark Fisher and Willie Williams. We Will Rock You is a jukebox musical, based on the songs of Queen and named after their hit single of the same name. The musical was written by English comedian and author Ben Elton in collaboration with Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor. The story takes place in a tongue-in-cheek dystopian future where originality and individuality are shunned, and a lone "Dreamer" appears who can fulfil a prophecy that will enable the return of rock 'n roll.

We Will Rock You is probably my favourite musical! I had seen The Lion King earlier in the year and that blew me away, but this just rocked it all up and I loved it! Using Lastminute.com ( which is should review as I am an avid user) I bought two tickets at £27.50 each, this was the cheapest tickets on there, It was a Wednesday Night, and it was my birthday, I was very hungover and had an awful head ache, but this made me hapy happy happy! When ordering on lastminute you pick your tickets up in the box office, when we cheacked them out, we were in the second row! Awsome view! You could see everything!

Premium Review For fans of Queen and Silly Storylines! (278 words)

I've never been a fan of musicals or the theatre but I do love Queen and so I was persuaded to go and see this a while back and absolutly loved it! My wife who does like theatre and musicals didn't really like it at all! So maybe this is a production for the reluctant theate go-ers! First of all it is a very camp and over the top production but if you're a fan of Queen then that is what you should expect! If you watch their music videos, listen to their lyrics and the fact that they provided the soundtrack to such silly (but great films) as Highlander then you'll know you're in for a crazy, in your face, OTT extravaganza. The story is set in the ...  Read the complete review

I was very excited to see We Will Rock You as I am a big fan of both Queen and musicals. There are many amazing aspects of this musical and the severely mediocre story line does not detract from the incredible music. The story is very much based around many classic Queen hits, this show is all about the music and the story line is weak but the music is so strong it really doesn't matter. The story is based in the future where all music is banned by an evil dominatrix has taken over the world with the aim of brainwashing everyone so they are unable to think for themselves. The hero's of the show are rebels who love music and can not be brainwashed like all the others, ...  Read the complete review

Never being a massive fan of 'musical theatre' as they like to say, I have never really WANTED to go and see shows like 'Cats' and 'Les Miserables' but there has been a recent spat of shows that incorporate pop music into their stories. These shows have become increasingly popular due to the success of 'Mama Mia' and 'We Will Rock You'. I've seen Mama Mia before in London with my girlfriend's family. It was OK if you like the music of ABBA, but if it's not your cup of tea it can be a bit tiresome. So on my birthday weekend in London we went to go and see We Will Rock You. We Will Rock You is much more up my street. Firstly it combines the excellent rock music ...  Read the complete review

I REALLY REALLY wanted to see this show for years and luckily enough for Xmas last year my son brought me two tickets to go and see it in March. I was beside myself with excitement! As time got nearer I couldn't wait, I had heard all different things about it ; It was very loud, like going to a rock concert so I was not sure what to expect. When I entered the theatre (Dominion Theatre, Tottenham Court Road, right outisde the tube station) it struck me as being quite a small theatre which I think I prefer, than it being some big arena to get lost in. We decided to have a quick drink before the show started (much to my husbands horror not the ...  Read the complete review
