Gloc Musical Theatre Wednesday - Saturday 13-16 MAY
WE WILL ROCK YOU AT QUESTORS THEATRE: QUEEN’S HITS LIVE
This one’s more than a show – it’s a homecoming. Freddie Mercury studied at Ealing Art College before Queen became a global force, and that local spark still matters. Expect a live band, a passionate local cast, and more than 20 Queen anthems – including Bohemian Rhapsody, Somebody to Love and Don’t Stop Me Now. Set in a future where individuality is under threat, a band of outsiders fights back through music, humour and defiance.
7.30pm (plus 2.30pm Saturday matinee). Questors Theatre, 12 Mattock Lane, W5 5BQ
Please see box office website for prices
