Ab September 2014 wird das erste „Rock-Theatrical" uberhaupt, wie Brian May das Musical nennt, fur nur wenige Monate an das Deutsche Theater Munchen kommen, und dann als Weihnachtsmusical in der Alten Oper Frankfurt gastieren.

Mit einem Augenzwinkern und vielen ironischen Seitenhieben ist WE WILL ROCK YOU dabei mehr als nur der Titel einer Show, mehr als nur ein Musical und mehr als ein Rock-Konzert - Es ist ein Versprechen: WE WILL ROCK YOU!

This is my final week of blogs (for serious this time), and it's breaking my heart. I love sharing our shenanigans with you guys because I truly believe this group of weirdos at 'Disaster!' is the greatest! Last week, I spent 6 out of 7 days with my cast mates. We only have 4 shows a week. We work together, we eat/drink together after the show, and on our days off, we gravitate right back to each other to continue the fun. Basically, we're in love.
