Ann Arbor Civic Theatre to perform Queen-inspired musical in September

(WKMG)

ANN ARBOR – Ann Arbor Civic Theatre is ready to rock audiences and teach the fandango with West End hit musical “We Will Rock You.”

Inspired by British rock band Queen, the production introduces audiences to a host of characters--based on more than 20 hit songs--as they try to save rock ‘n’ roll in a future where creativity is being snuffed out.
