BWW Reviews: WE WILL ROCK YOU Not Too Deep But Lots of Fun
by Paul Batterson - January 09, 2014

The Guardian felt the production came across as 'ruthlessly packaged and manufactured,' with its plot finding 'more unlikely ways to wring out another Queen song' into the two and a half hour performance.
