We Will Rock You - Original London Cast Recording (2-CD)

by Various Artists

2012 sees the musical phenomenon 'We Will Rock You' celebrate it's 10th anniversary. In the UK alone the show has been seen by over 6 million people, and worldwide it's been enjoyed by more than 13 million people. We Will Rock You's continuing popular appeal was most recently highlighted when it won the 2011 Olivier Audience Award for Best Musical, the only award voted entirely by the public. This is the second award received by public vote, following on from the WhatsonStage Best New Musical award the show received in 2003. In it's ten-year run We Will Rock You has built a fiercely loyal following across all ages with some fans having visited the show more than 400 times, couples have met and married through the show, and when Queen's Brian May himself popped up in the Box Office to personally hand over the 1 millionth ticket purchased (September 22, 2003), it was a 61-year-old grandmother who was buying the ticket to treat her 4-year-old great grandson to see the show. And what other show could boast Beyonc‚, Britney Spears and Pink in the house on the same night, or other celebrity fans such as Demi Moore, Priscilla Presley and Liza Minnelli.
