Created by English-Australian comedian, author, playwright and director Ben Elton and the legendary band Queen, the musical opened at the Dominion Theatre on May 14th 2002. It has now rightfully earned its place on the top ten list of London's longest musicals alongside Phantom of the Opera, The Lion King and Les Miserables.
To further cement it's continued popularity, the show last year won the Olivier Audience Award for best musical, the only award voted for entirely by the public. It was the second public vote award received by the show after winning the WhatsonStage.com best new musical award in 2003.
The show has a fiercely loyal following with some people coming to see it over 400 times! Couples have even met and married during the show and one night Britney, Beyonce and Pink were all in the audience on the same night! How many shows can boast about that! It has been seen by over 6 million people at the Dominion Theatre alone and over 13 million people around the world.
This is one special performance not to be missed, who knows which special guests will be in the audience on the night of May 14th or even on the stage. Get you tickets now before it's too late!
