We Will Rock You (often abbreviated as WWRY) is a jukebox musical based on the songs of British rock band Queen with a book by Ben Elton. The musical tells the story of a group of Bohemians who struggle to restore the free exchange of thought and fashion, and live music in a distant future where everyone dresses, thinks and acts the same.
Directed by Christopher Renshaw and choreographed by Arlene Phillips, the original West End production opened in 2002. Although the musical was at first panned by critics, it has become an audience favourite, becoming the longest-running musical at the Dominion Theatre, celebrating its tenth anniversary on 14 May 2012.[1]
The original production closed on 31 May 2014, at that time the eleventh longest-running musical in West End history.[2] Numerous international and touring productions have followed, and We Will Rock You has been seen in six of the world’s continents. By December 2022 the musical had been seen by 20 million people across 28 countries.[3]
From 2 June to 27 August 2023, We Will Rock You returned to the West End for a 12-week run at the London Coliseum.[4]
