Plays
In the United Kingdom there is a vibrant history of great theatre, after all it is the country that provided the world with William Shakespeare, whose work is still being critiqued and performed centuries after his death. A trip around the country will reveal many kinds of plays and musicals, as well as ballet, opera, comedy and cabaret acts for everyone to enjoy. Every city has something to offer, from Edinburgh and Glasgow to Manchester, Newcastle, Leeds, Birmingham and Bristol.
Then there is London, home to the West End, where people flock from around the world to witness some great theatre performed by the world’s best actors. Tens of millions of people arrive in London each year for the theatre, meaning that records are regularly broken and standards are set for other cities around the world. It means that if you want to witness some great theatre, then the best place to call is London, where your theatre tickets will provide you with quality entertainment.
One of the many great productions in the West End is We Will Rock You, the great musical based on the music of Queen, which is running at the Dominion Theatre. Under the pen of comedian Ben Elton, We Will Rock You is an anthem filled journey to the future, where the world is controlled by the evil Killer Queen and the GlobalSoft Corporation. Under her tyrannical rule, free thought has been outlawed along with freedom of expression and the freedom of music and The Earth has been renamed as Planet Mall.
This is where The Bohemians step in, a group of freedom fighters who want to restore the world to the time of ‘The Rhapsody’. Along the way the audience is treated to some classic songs by Queen, including “I Want To Break Free”, “Radio Ga Ga”, “Don’t Stop Me Now”, “Under Pressure”, “Hammer To Fall”, “Another One Bites The Dust”, “A Kind Of Magic”, “Who Wants To Live Forever”, “Play The Game” and of course the classic “We Will Rock You”.
And it all takes place under the roof of the Dominion Theatre on Tottenham Court Road, a sight that has a history as far back as 1100 (and a theatre from 1928) where a leper company was once housed. It’s a sight enriched with history and a great location to witness We Will Rock You as it is unleashed onstage.
London Theatre tickets are your key to a great night out in the West End. So what are you waiting for?
