We Will Rock You

This is my review of We Will Rock You. Please Comment, this is for my Arts Award so I need some quotes.

I went to se my cousin, Sam, in the musical “We Will Rock You”, at Arthur Terry School. Although it was a school production, it was very professional and all the actors were great.

It’s set years into the future, when all live music and instruments are banned. The only music allowed is computer programmed. Galileo, a rebel graduating from school hears rock songs in his dreams. He and Scaramouche, a girl who is also a rebel, are captured by the police.

A group of people called the Bohemians are trying to make instruments and bring back live music. They found out bits of the past and named themselves after pop and rock stars, like Britney Spears, Meat Loaf, Bob the Builder, the Spice Girls and Cliff Richard. They don’t know much about them, so they misunderstand a lot. They think Britney spears is a big tough rock star, and they don’t know Bob the Builder is a children’s character. Britney and Meat Loaf find Galileo and Scaramouche. They discover Galileo is the one in the legend to bring back live music.

It was brilliant. There were lots of effects with lights shining everywhere and a disco ball. It also had a band instead of a backing track which made it even better. It featured loads of Queen music, and there was a lot of audience participation. I would defiantly recommend this to anyone who likes musicals, and I would love see it again.
