We Will Rock You
In the distant future, rock ‘n’ roll is dead. Earth has been renamed iPlanet, and the people who live there move their heads in synchronicity to sterile songs composed by computers—the ruling body, Globalsoft Corporation, has even gone so far as to forbid actual instruments and composers. Everyone thinks the same thoughts, wears the same clothes, and watches the same movies. But for one young man named Galileo, this society is nothing but a prison—and he wants to break free. We Will Rock You takes “We Are the Champions,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and the other songs of Queen and puts them to their natural purpose: soundtracking the overthrow of an oppressive empire. With the help of a young woman named Scaramouche and an underground resistance of Bohemians, Galileo fights to bring rock back to this creatively barren world and to set humanity back on the path of righteous solos.
Ed Mirvish Theatre
In the 1920s, a blur of vaudeville and motion pictures orchestrated by the Pantages theatre circuit lit the auditorium of the Ed Mirvish Theatre. Back then, the venue’s 3,373 seats made it the largest theatre in Canada, and the Thomas Lamb–designed interior made it one of the most elegant. When the Pantages empire fell, the Ed Mirvish Theatre lost its name and its vaudeville, beginning an era that saw it divided and traded until it wound up in the hands of David Mirvish. Mirvish recognized the elegance in the theatre’s marble lobby and murals, and named it in honor of his father.
