I love musicals. I’m a total musical geek. I will see anything and everything and love it all. And when I heard there was a musical based on the music of the rock group Queen, I was ALL IN.
From the website:
The ‘rock theatrical’, built around 24 of Queen’s biggest hits delivered in a show that boasts the scale and electrifying spectacle that marked the bands’ legendary live performances, will launch a national tour in Baltimore, MD, at the France-Merrick Performing Arts Center, in October 2013.
This hilarious, multi-award-winning and record-breaking phenomenon is created by celebrated British comedian and writer Ben Elton (TV’s “Mr. Bean” and “The Young Ones”), and boasts a fantastic score of Queen’s biggest songs including “Another One Bites The Dust”, “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”, “We Are The Champions,” “Bohemian Rhapsody” and, of course, “We Will Rock You”.
Queen’s Brian May and Roger Taylor are musical supervisors to the show, taking an active role in casting the singer/actors and musicians for every production worldwide. On occasion, they have made surprise appearances with the cast to uproars of delight from the audience.
The DC MOMS has two tickets to give away to WE WILL ROCK YOU’S opening night on Tuesday June 3rd. Just leave a comment telling me what your favorite musical is (by Sunday May 18). Winner will be picked randomly and contacted by May 19.
