"The Charters Towers Performing Arts Festival was formed by a group of dedicated parents who wanted to give the young people of our community a chance to perform and to show The World the results of all their hard work and practice.

Over the years it has grown and evolved into what is now The Charters Towers Eisteddfod. It is held in August every year and attracted over 1500 entries from all across North Queensland who performed in Music, Dance, Drama and Visual Arts sections, and performed well."

WE WILL ROCK YOU presented by Towers Players

 Since 2002 over 16 million theatregoers in 28 countries have been thrilled by this awe-inspiring production which is based on the songs of Queen with a book by Ben Elton (The Young Ones, Blackadder, Popcorn).


Elton fashioned this hilarious futurist comedy musical around more than 24 of Queen's biggest hit songs including We Are The Champions, Radio Ga Ga, I Want To Break Free, Somebody To Love, Killer Queen, Don?t Stop Me Now, Under Pressure, Bohemian Rhapsody, Another One Bites The Dust and of course, We Will Rock You.

WE WILL ROCK YOU [LIVE]

The musical takes place in a future age on a planet once called Earth that is now controlled by a mighty corporation...rock music is unheard and all musical instruments are banned. The hope of breaking free rests with an unlikely resistance-an alliance of rebel Bohemians.

The Australian said "It's deliriously, majestically, mad entertainment" while the Daily Telegraph described the production as "funny, cheeky, great entertainment "

"WE WILL ROCK YOU delivers everything it promises.?" Arts Hub said it is "laugh-out-loud funny", Australian Stage said it is "A hell of a fun night out" and Stage Whispers said, "This production will rock your socks off!". The Sydney Morning Herald declared, "WE WILL ROCK YOU hits all the right notes. You will be rocked."
