After a sold-out season at Crown Theatre in 2020, Platinum Entertainment’s killer production of the global smash hit musical, We Will Rock You, is back! Featuring the music of British rock legends, Queen, from the book by Ben Elton, this show has been reimagined in 2023 for Subiaco’s Regal Theatre – a home fit for ‘Queen’.
We Will Rock You tells the story of planet Earth 300 years in the future where society exists under an Orwellian regime designed to ensure that everyone looks and acts the same. It’s a place where music – especially rock music – is virtually unknown.
But there are some – the Bohemians – who don’t conform; and their quest to find the music that will defeat the regime and set the people free is framed against a feast of iconic Queen hits including Radio Ga Ga, I Want to Break Free, Killer Queen, Under Pressure, Bohemian Rhapsody and, of course, the eponymous We Will Rock You.
Australian Idol finalist Courtney Murphy will reprise the role of Brit (which he played in the 2018 premiere Perth season to much acclaim) alongside a cast of fellow talented West Australians including;
- Multi-award winning drag artist Dean Misdale, reprising the role of Killer Queen
- The Queen of Perth Comedy Janelle Koenig as ‘Macca’ – The Rebel Leader
- Local legend Blake Williams playing Khashoggi (previously played Galileo)
- Perth singer Holly Denton playing Oz (previously played Scaramouche)
Platinum Entertainment has won acclaim for its Perth productions of Priscilla Queen of The Desert The Musical, The Boy from Oz, CATS The Musical, and Jesus Christ Superstar.
