MOUNT Kelly students have been hard at work getting ready for the school’s production of We Will Rock You.

The show features numerous hits by rock icons Queen, with students taking on singing and performing roles, playing in the band and various other roles backstage.

The musical tells the story of a group of bohemians who struggle to restore the free exchange of thought, fashion and live music in a distant future where everyone dresses, thinks and acts the same. Musical instruments and composers are forbidden, and rock music is all but unknown.

The shows were performed on February 5 and 6 to sellout audiences and the event was hailed a great success by all who attended.
