About We Will Rock You
21 years after its premiere, the world’s best-loved rock musical returns to London! This time, its home will be the London Coliseum, the same iconic stage that held Freddie Mercury’s Royal Ballet gala show in 1979. Seen by over 20 million people in 28 countries, this musical spectacular will play to its largest audience yet and will surely go down in musical theatre history. Featuring Queen’s greatest hits 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'Another One Bites the Dust', 'Don’t Stop Me Now', 'We Are The Champions' and many more - this musical rivals the spectacle and scale of the band’s legendary live shows and is guaranteed to blow your mind! We Will Rock You is set in the future, in a globalised world where musical instruments are banned. Bohemians, a handful of rock rebels, fight against an all-powerful company and its boss, the Killer Queen; they fight for individuality, freedom and the rebirth of the age of rock. Scaramouche and Galileo, a couple of young outsiders, cannot come to terms with the bleak conformist reality. They join the Bohemians and embark on the search to find the unlimited power of freedom, love and rock!

Queen musical tickets
We Will Rock You offers a glimpse 300 years into planet Earth’s future, in which globalisation has been achieved. The residents of the iPlanet are Ga Ga Kids, who all watch the same movies, listen to the same empty music, dress the same, think the same, and do the same. Musical instruments are banned, and rock music simply doesn’t exist. But student Galileo has been having strange dreams, and it seems that the songs of a certain band are beginning to resonate forward through time itself…
With the resistance growing and the residents of the iPlanet beginning to awaken, the people are going to need a hero to lead them. Can Galileo help them to break free from this control once and for all?
We Will Rock You was first performed in London in 2002. Since then, the Queen musical has become one of the West End’s longest running musicals and been adorned with Olivier Awards, WhatsOnStage awards, and countless other accolades. The We Will Rock You 2023 London production is a triumphant homecoming for the show, after it has travelled to 28 different countries and been seen by more than 20 million people.
