It’s been 9 years for the reason that Queen musical We Will Rock You closed on the Dominion Theatre in London’s West End.

Now for 12 weeks solely the epic present returns for a 12-week run on the London Coliseum.

This time across the manufacturing’s author Ben Elton is starring for the primary time ever as Rebel Leader.

Ahead of tomorrow night time’s gala premiere, Sir Brian May has visited the previews and oversaw the set up of the brand new Freddie Mercury statue.

And as is a part of his little custom, the Queen legend likes to make a shock cameo on the finish by taking part in his Bohemian Rhapsody guitar solo.

Reigniting that custom, Sir Brian was lifted on stage from a platform beneath earlier than taking part in that iconic riff.

Filmed by Theatre Fan Shaun Tossell, followers have been clearly left in awe on the sight of the Queen legend himself becoming a member of the We Will Rock You solid on the finish of the present.

Having attended the primary preview over the weekend, the 75-year-old rocker shared his response.

Sir Brian wrote on his official Instagram: “It was a magnificent first preview tonight of WE WILL ROCK YOU the Rock Theatrical, reborn in the Coliseum Theatre and bristling with new energy.

“Congratulations to the entire Company – what an incredible response !!!!”
