Want to break free? The team behind the hit productions of Mamma Mia!, Jesus Christ Superstar, Shrek, Wicked, Legally Blonde and The Phantom Of The Opera, will rock Riverside Theatres in February 2021 with a brand new production of the smash hit musical, We Will Rock You.
Since 2002 over 16 million theatregoers in 19 countries have been thrilled by this awe-inspiring production which is based on the songs of Queen with a book by Ben Elton (The Young Ones, Blackadder, Popcorn).
The musical features over 24 of Queen's greatest hits including We Are the Champions, Radio Ga Ga, I Want To Break Free, Somebody To Love, Killer Queen, Don't Stop Me Now, Under Pressure, Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites the Dust and, of course, We Will Rock You.
We Will Rock You is an hilarious, eccentric and moving story of outsiders rising up against the establishment. In a post-apocalyptic future, the world is controlled by a mighty corporation....rock music and all musical instruments are banned. It's up to two revolutionaries, Galileo and Scaramouche, to break free, restore individuality and bring back the power of Rock 'n' Roll.

Packemin Productions and Riverside Theatres will be defying gravity in their upcoming production of Wicked in July/August 2016. Wicked tells the incredible untold story of the witches of Oz. Long before Dorothy dropped in, two other girls meet in the land of Oz and formed an unlikely but profound friendship: the blonde and very popular Glinda and a misunderstood green girl named Elphaba. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will test their friendship to the limit and ultimately see them fulfil their destinies as Glinda The Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.
Awe-inspiring and spectacular, this gravity-defying show has been playing on Broadway since 2003 and recently completed a seven year continuous run throughout Australasia.
