We Will Rock You stars to hold charity concert
Tuesday, 21 December 2010
Fans of We Will Rock You may wish to get hold of tickets to a special concert next year that aims to raise money for charity.
Anthems will be held at the Royal Albert Hall on May 1st 2011 and was the brainchild of Queen guitarist Brian May and former Wicked and We Will Rock You star Kerry Ellis.
Attendees can expect to hear a host of songs specially chosen for Ellis, including hits from musicals such as Rent, Hairspray and Aida, with May, the City of London Philharmonic and the Anthems Ensemble backing her up.
The money raised on the night will go towards Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research.
May commented: "Anthems: The Concert will show we've created together a style that defines a new form of music - a kind of anthemic-orchestral-rock-musical-theatre fusion."
Meanwhile, We Will Rock You continues to show in the West End, with fans able to visit it at the Dominion Theatre.
