We Will Rock You Tickets

We Will Rock You is set to return to the London stage in 2023. The smash-hit musical featuring songs from the legendary rock group Queen will return for a 12-week season next summer at the London Coliseum. Written by Queen and Ben Elton, the show, which is set in a dystopian future, has been seen by over 20 million people across 28 countries. We caught up with Ben Elton, who enthused: “We need to be back in London and we’re going to be back in London!”.

We Will Rock You originally opened at the Dominion Theatre in 2002 and ran until 2014, becoming one of the longest-running musicals in West End history. “It will be 21 years. We opened on the 14th of May in 2002. I know that very well because it’s my wedding anniversary day and for twelve years my wife had to accept that the most important thing was We Will Rock You. We’ll be opening in early June, so almost on our 21st birthday.” Ben told us.

This Saturday (31st May 2014) marks the end of an era at the Dominion Theatre as We Will Rock You’s twelve year run comes to an end. Brian May and Roger Taylor will both make a special appearance during the finales of the two final shows. Tickets for the final week have been like gold dust, it seems everybody wants to see We Will Rock You one last time.

Having rocked over 6.5 million people in a record-breaking 12 years at the London’s Dominion Theatre, the smash hit Queen & Ben Elton musical We Will Rock You is due finally to close on 31 May 2014.

What is the enduring popularity of We Will Rock You? Celebrating it's 10th year annivesary this 14th May, the show continues to be an audience favourite.  Last year it won the Olivier Audience Award for most popular show as voted for by the audience beating off stiff competition from the likes of Les Miserables, Billy Elliot and Jersey Boys.

 We Will Rock You is now in its 11th year in London having celebrated its 10th anniversary performance recently. It is no surprise that WWRY continues to thrill and fill The Dominion Theatre night after night!

The “jukebox” musical has become a contentious issue in theatre.  For some, they represent a dumbing down, where creativity has been stifled for shallow money-making machinations.  For others, they offer the simple pleasures of a fun night out.  As one of the first “jukebox” musicals, recently celebrating its tenth anniversary, We Will Rock You is at the centre of this dichotomy.

We Will Rock You has proven to be one of the West End's most enduring hits.  Last year they scooped the Audience voted award at the Laurence Olivier Awards for most Popular Show and this year the show will be celebrating it's 10th year anniversary at the Dominion Theatre .

We reveal the what really goes on at a London theatre ticket agency!

It is small wonder that We Will Rock You is still one of the most popular choices for a West End theatre night out when Queen's music and influence is still pervading our current music scene.   The show has been playing to packed audiences since 2002 at the Dominion Theatre and its success shows no signs of slowing down.
