Hi everyone! I feel like I haven't been on here for ages!!! I got to go to the press night for WWRY in Birmingham where Brian fell over onto Roger's drum kit!! Bless him! We were lucky enough to meet Roger, Rufus, Ben and Brian!!! And Jonathan Wilkes (but nobody seems to care about him apart from me!!).  |

www.birminghammail.netTHEATRE-GOERS were treated to a surprise performance from Queen musicians Brian May and Roger Taylor on the second Birmingham night of their hit musical We Will Rock You. But the pair, who form half of the rock band Queen, nearly came a cropper when they collided mid stage. The duo, who do not normally appear as part of the show, came on stage for the encore, Bohemian Rhapsody. As the cast burst into song, the backdrop opened dramatically and Brian May, with his trademark long locks, took centre stage to play guitar. Moments later a drum kit swung into view and moved forward with Roger Taylor happily banging away. But as the drum kit came forward, Brian stepped backwards and the two collided. It was a fitting finale to a show which had received rapturous applause from an enthusiastic audience. We Will Rock You was panned by critics when it first opened in London six years ago but has proved to be one of the West End’s greatest hits. In terms of structure and storyline, We Will Rock You is weak to say the least. With one dimensional characters, a good few holes in the plot and a ludicrous story in which two young people and a hippy go in search of a magical guitar, it is easy to see why critics did not jump at We Will Rock You. But with a host of timelessly classic songs, some stunning sets and costumes, lively choreography by Arlene Phillips plus plenty of sharp and current dialogue, how can an audience not love it? In the two lead roles are Alex Gaumond as Galileo and Sarah French-Ellis (Alison Peters in EastEnders) as Scaramouche who both have great stage presence and can belt out a song as well as any rock star. Wrap this all up with plenty of spectacle and songs such as Don’t Stop Me Now, Another One Bites the Dust, Somebody to Love and, of course, We Will Rock You and you have a surefire audience pleaser. Until Sept 5
