Are you ready to rock? The award-winning rock musical\u00a0We Will Rock You\u00a0is, trust us, going to blow your mind!<\/strong><\/h4>\n

It’s a high energy major extravaganza that eventually turns into a rock concert, and will appeal to everyone from cool teens and young adults to rockers from the 70s, 80s and 90s.<\/p>\n

As part of a major world tour, which began in Manila in the Philippines in October last year, this Queen and Ben Elton brand-new production has just opened at Montecasino\u2019s Teatro \u2026 and has received nothing but rave reviews.<\/p>\n

We Will Rock You is not a tribute show, nor does it tell the story of Queen or the legendary Freddie Mercury. Instead, it\u2019s a massive, full scale, new vision musical theatre production with its own storyline set to the music of two dozen of Queen\u2019s most popular hits \u2026 \u00a0a Crazy Little Thing Called Love, Killer Queen,<\/em>\u00a0the worldwide favourites\u00a0We are the Champions<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Bohemian Rhapsody<\/em>, and, obviously,\u00a0We Will Rock You<\/em>.\u00a0The show is\u00a0about a group of bohemians in a dystopian future without musical instruments. A handful of rock rebels, the Bohemians, together with society misfits Scaramouche and Galileo, embark on the search to find the unlimited power of freedom, love and the rebirth of the age of rock.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With an all-South African highly-talented cast and crew, there\u2019s a combination of established, well-known performers and fresh new talent, making their musical theatre debut. Nicolette Fernandes (The Producers, Spring Awakening, URINETOWN! Sister Act) plays the leading role of the \u2018sarcastic, cynical\u2019 Scaramouche alongside Stuart Brown (How To Date Like A F*@#&%! Grownup \u2013 A Musical Comedy (Workshop Version), Defending\u00a0The\u00a0Gay Man) as Galileo, the dreamer who hears strange words in his head.\u00a0 Stage and screen actress, singer and dancer Londiwe\u00a0Dhlomo\u00a0plays\u00a0the villain Killer Queen who rules Planet Mall with an iron fist, assisted by her second in command, Khashoggi, played by award-winning film, television and stage actor Craig Urbani (Chicago The Musical, Rocky Horror, Legacy,\u00a0Blitzpatrolli).\u00a0\u00a0Tiaan Rautenbach (Jesus Christ Superstar,\u00a0Binnelanders,\u00a0Aspoestertjie) plays the role of Buddy who tries to figure out the \u2018exact date the music died\u2019.\u00a0 International and local musical theatre performer as well as television and feature film actor, Richard Gau (Calling Us Home, Evita, PRIME – Netflix Original) plays Brit, alongside Danelle Cronje (Doringrosie: Die\u00a0Slapende\u00a0Skone, Seussical, Barely Legal Showtunes) in the role of Oz.\u00a0\u00a0Performing on stage, alongside the seven leads is a twenty strong highly talented ensemble who perform to the six piece live band.<\/p>\n

It’s a show you\u2019ll kick yourself for not seeing \u2026 and it\u2019s only on at Montecasino until April 16, when it\u2019ll move down to Cape Town. Shows are on Tuesday to Friday at 8pm, with two shows on a Saturday (3pm and 8pm) and Sunday (2pm and 6pm). Tickets cost from R200 to R500, with specials from R100 on Tuesdays.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Book online on\u00a0www.showtime.co.za<\/a> or\u00a0www.ticketmaster.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n
