Matt Byrne Media by arrangement with David Spicer Productions loudly presents the SA Premiere of We Will Rock You . It's playing at The Arts Theatre from July 5th-14th & Elizabeth's Shedley Theatre from July 19th - 28th. If you love the music of Queen, then you wont want to miss this celebration of rock.

We Will Rock You is a musical based on the songs of British rock band Queen. Directed by Matt Byrne, Musically Directed by Kim Clark and Choreographed by Sarah Williams. Written in 2002 by Ben Elton. It follows the story of Galileo and Scaramouche, two free spirits in a world where musical instruments and composers are forbidden. These two musicians set out to bring back rock music because there is a legend that one day the dreamer will come to save the world. Galileo is this dreamer.

This production is fun high energy entertainment with incredible set design and amazing vocalists. Iman Saleh as Galileo Figaro and Danielle Greaves as Scaramouche had incredible on-stage chemistry and vocals that stretched beyond their age. Saleh stole the stage with 'I Want to Break Free' proving that Freddy Mercury can be reborn. Greaves won over the crowd with 'Somebody to Love', belting out notes that had the crowd amazed by this jaw-dropping entertainment.

April Stuart was born to play 'Killer Queen' - she rocked the full leather outfit and along with her husky strong vocals, she had the crowd in a trance. She pulled out all the stops in 'Another One Bites the Dust' and it sounded incredible. Matt Byrne spared no expense in this production giving it everything he had and more. It goes above and beyond expectations and no words give this incredible production justice.

Starring Iman Saleh as Galileo, Danielle Greaves as Scaramouche', April Stuart as Killer Queen', James McCluskey-Garcia as Khashoggi, Anthony Butler as Britney Spears, Kathryn Driver as Ozzie Osborne, Matt Byrne as Buddy Holly & The Crickets, Nadine Wood as The Teacher.
