QUEEN fans stomped their feet and waved glow sticks in the air as they sang along to a star-studded debut of the rock musical We Will Rock You on Tuesday night.
The stage show opened with a gala premiere attended by celebrities including actors Eugene Levy and Colin Mochrie, the cast of Degrassi: The Next Generation and Queen members Brian May and Roger Taylor.
Both May, who was draped in a long red coat, and Taylor, in a dark suit, were mobbed by cameras and autograph seekers as soon as they arrived at the Canon Theatre.
Taylor said he was pleased to finally see We Will Rock You open in Canada.
"It's been a long time coming," Taylor said of the musical, already a smash in England, Germany, Spain, Australia and Japan."I think Toronto is a rock 'n' roll town and Canada is a rock 'n' roll country. I hope it goes as well as it does in London."
