I'm working on We Will Rock You at the moment. Unmitigated shite from start to finish.

Not a Queen fan then Leggy?

I think hearing Queens back catalogue over and over again would drive any sane person insane.

I am currently in my office and I work in an entertainment venue where the UK dance championships are taking place;
I have had to listen to the same 1 minute loop of Cha cha or Foxtrot or whatever it is for 7.5 hours a day...all week and I am borderline psychotic... I hope I am still on the right side of the law by Friday.

No, I don't mind Queen at all. The musical is just one of my least favourite froms of entertainment. 'Tis neither fish nor fowl ie. not a good gig nor an interesting play. And this is a particularly poor example of the genre.
