Queen musical

they are opening a musical based on the music of Queen. this show has been talked about for years. i went to a reading of it here in NY. it was so bad as to be hilarious. the story they have created in order to get the songs to go with the narrative is absurd. check it out: we will rock you

That theatre will be the best gay male pickup joint on the planet.

Why don't they just do Flash Gordon: The musical if they wanted a Queen vehicle?

Arpi,

My hotel is two blocks from the theater in London showing it. They've got still photos around the doors and the commercial has been playing on the tv for a few weeks. It opened two weeks ago.

It looks like a retarded music video. They have a fat black woman singing Bohemian Raphsody, lots of neon, tv monitors, light walls, etc. It just looks stupid.
