Eastbourne Operatic and Dramatic Society brings Queen and Ben Elton's musical, set to Queen's biggest hits, to the Royal Hippodrome.
Eastbourne Operatic and Dramatic Society are bringing We Will Rock You to the Royal Hippodrome Theatre, with performances running from Wednesday 28 October to Sunday 1 November. It's the musical written by Ben Elton, built around the songs of Queen, and it's a show that's seen more than 15 million theatre-goers across 17 countries.
The story is set in a dystopian future where rock music has been wiped out by a bland, corporate culture. It follows a group of rebels led by Galileo and Scaramouche on a quest to bring rock back to the world. The score is built around Queen's biggest hits, and the list is a long one: 'We Are The Champions', 'I Want To Break Free', 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'Somebody to Love', 'Don't Stop Me Now', 'Under Pressure', 'Another One Bites the Dust' and 'We Will Rock You' are all in there.
