The Spirit Of Rock
We will we will rock you ... the song echoes on as the We Will Rock You musical continues to rock audiences worldwide. This year, the rock musical based on the songs of Queen came to Hong Kong and Zung Fu invited 100 customers exclusively to this spectacular show at Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts on 23 May. They had a great time enjoying the musical after relaxing at welcome reception.

The musical was written by English comedian and author Ben Elton in collaboration with Brian May and Roger Taylor, founding members of famed English rock band Queen. We Will Rock You first opened at London's Dominion Theatre in 2002, and has since rocked more than six million people worldwide.

The story happens in the future when a corporation called Globalsoft controls people's lives and generates tunes for them to download. Musical instruments are banned. Individualism and originality are suppressed. Then, a Dreamer named Galileo appears and tries to bring rock'n'roll back. The energetic cast performed the fabulous songs with gusto and much hilarity, particularly their spirited and splendid rendition of Killer Queen. The audience appreciated the humour and there was much laughter.

The show features more than 26 hit songs by Queen, including the title track, We are the Champions, Bohemian Rhapsody, Radio Ga Ga, I Want to Break Free and Crazy Little Thing Called Love, all of which had the audience dancing and clapping along to the beat.
