WE WILL ROCK YOU School Edition to Feature 100+ Teen Performers at MCT Performing Arts Camp
The MCT Performing Arts Camp production will feature music by Queen, with participants from the US and Canada.
The Missoula Children's Theatre will, indeed, ROCK YOU with the 2026 Performing Arts Camp (PAC) G-rated production of WE WILL ROCK YOU - SCHOOL EDITION. On Friday, August 7 at 7:30PM and Saturday, August 8 at 2PM & 7:30PM, the MCT stage will be filled with 100+ teenage campers. The majority travel from around Montana and the others from states north and south (Connecticut to Texas) and from east and west (Washington, DC to Washington state); from the heartland of the US as well as our neighbor to the north—Canada!
Performing Arts Camp (PAC) begins on Sunday, July 26 at Flathead Lake, where the campers gather to audition for their roles, then begin daily intensive rehearsals including singing and choreography while creating life-long friendships. They'll make their way to Missoula for final preparation and a weekend of LIVE musical performances at MCT before returning home with a piece of Missoula in their hearts! WE WILL ROCK YOU – SCHOOL EDITION performances are Friday, August 7 at 7:30PM and Saturday, August 8 at 2 & 7:30PM in MCT's air-conditioned theatre. All seating is reserved.
The script opens with “The time is the future. The place is the iPlanet once called earth. Life is lived online. No crowds gather, no band plays. All music is generated by computer…the kids have been silenced. By law.” Sound fun? We didn't think so either but now enter teenage revolutionaries wanting to save rock-n-roll in their post-apocalyptic world with…wait for it…the music of QUEEN and their hits “Bohemian Rhapsody,” “We Are the Champions,” “Somebody to Love,” “Don't Stop Me Now,” and of course, “We Will Rock You.”
