We Will Rock You, a musical with songs by Queen and written by Ben Elton, will open March 2007 at the Canon Theatre (244 Victoria St., Toronto). Tickets will be on sale on November 20.  

"The story is set in the future on Planet Mall, where people conform to the mainstream music created on computer generated music and musical instruments are banned. A group, the Bohemians, want to bring back live music. Galileo rebels with the Bohemians to find instruments hidden in the planet and return to the Golden Age when kids wrote their own songs," state press materials.
