DHTC BOX OFFICE 508.264.4279

Dartmouth High Theatre Company
Presents
We Will Rock You

WE WILL ROCK YOU tells the story of a globalized future without musical instruments. The jukebox rock musical ties together many of the iconic songs of the British rock band Queen with a story and script by Ben Elton. 

WWRY is about a group of young Bohemians who struggle against the all-powerful Globalsoft company to restore the free exchange of thought, fashion, and live music in a distant future where everyone dresses, thinks and acts the same. In this world, musical instruments and composers are forbidden, and rock music is unknown or hilariously misunderstood. There are lots of sly references to classic rock lyrics that fans of all ages can appreciate and the well-known tunes of Queen rock the house until the final note.

Since 2002 over 15 million theatregoers in 17 countries have been thrilled by this awe-inspiring and hilarious futurist comedy that is based around more than 24 of Queen’s biggest hit songs including We Are The Champions, Radio Ga Ga, I Want To Break Free, Somebody To Love, Killer Queen, Under Pressure, Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites The Dust and of course, We Will Rock You.

Be a part of what Ben Elton said, "eventually becomes a rock concert!"

Co-Directed by Shirley Byers and Denis Lawrence, Jr.

DONATIONS it might surprise you to learn that we do not receive funding. Thus far, everything we are able to accomplish is done through hard work, dedication, and ticket sales.

FAQ

Q. Where will the performance take place?

A. The students of DHTC will be performing on the stage at the DHS Auditorium but due to COVID restrictions, the performance will be streamed for all to view through the purchase of a $10 ticket.

Q. Is this the same as the 2020 Christmas performance of It's a Wonderful Life?

A. Very similar, as we will be using similar technology to deliver the performance to you online, however this time we are very grateful to be able to perform altogether back on the stage in the DHS Auditorium. The performance of It's A Wonderful Life was performed online with each student remotely in their homes, for at the time all students were studying remotely.

While we still have to follow many Covid protocols for the performance of We Will Rock You, such as masks, social distancing, etc. we are very grateful to be able to perform together once again and on our stage!

Yes, we are disappointed that we can not see you live and in person, as we hoped, but with this new technology, we are also able to reach friends and family who have been unable to come to our shows before for a variety of reasons so that is exciting!

A. No it is not but here is a helpful guide to help.
