Queen of Rock - After Event Showreel

Show highlights from Queen of Rock – a Musical to Change reality!

Queen of rock is a musical about how the real world has transformed into a virtual world, where everyone is the same- they think the same, act the same and dress the same. A simple story about a group of Bohemians who struggle to restore the free exchange of thought, fashion and live music in the era of uniformity! It is a repetitive world that we can relate to, because aren’t we all set in a similar environment, which is similarly monotonous in its societal norms,and really hard to break away from?

Queen of rock is a fundraiser for CAPED & Azad Foundation.
