Rachel Tucker to Join 'We Will Rock You'

Rachel Tucker of the BBC's "I'd Do Anything" will star as Meat in the Queen musical We Will Rock You at the Dominion Theatre starting September 22nd.

Tucker made it to the semi-finals on I'd Do Anything, but eventually lost to Jodie Prenger. Tucker was the ninth of the final dozen voted off by the public.

Before appearing on I'd Do Anything, Tucker was already a professional performer, with credits including Rod Stewart's Tonight's the Night in the West End, and Rent, The Wizard of Oz and The Full Monty elsewhere.

Set in the future, We Will Rock You tells the story of a world in which globalisation has meant the death of real music in favour of computer-produced cyber stars, a status quo which the rebel Bohemians, harking back to the Golden Age of rock (embodied by Queen), are trying to overthrow so that they can write and perform their own music. An unintentional hero ends up saving the kids of Planet Mall from the tyrannical Killer Queen and discovers the place of living rock.

We Will Rock You has a book by Ben Elton and features 32 of Queen's greatest hits including "Bohemian Rhapsody", "Crazy Little Thing Called Love", "Under Pressure", "Radio Gaga" and, of course, "We Will Rock You". It's directed by Elton, choreographed by Arlene Phillips and designed by Mark Fisher and Willie Williams.
