Sir Brian May described Kerry Ellis as having ‘the most beautiful voice in Britain.’ So he asked her to sing Queen’s greatest hits in the smash hit musical, We Will Rock You.

The duo met in 2002 and released three albums together, as well as touring the world. Rock anthems were the inspiration for award-winning singer Kerry Ellis, who is one of the greatest stars of musical theatre.

And in this new show, she will explore her love of Rock Anthems as she pays homage to Queen, Meatloaf, Bonnie Tyler and the other rock legends who inspired her. Ellis will sing a juke box full of classic rock anthems.

She Will, She Will, Rock You.

 Queen of the West End Kerry Ellis back on hunt for rising stars

 West End star Kerry Ellis is once again offering the next generation of talent the opportunity to join her on stage this autumn.

Kerry is inviting rising stars the chance to perform a song with her at each of her forthcoming Rock Anthems tour dates.

The tour kicks off in Weston-super-Mare in September and will see Kerry perform the rock songs which have inspired her, from Queen to Meatloaf, Bonnie Tyler to Aerosmith.

For the second time, she has teamed up with Perform Now  giving budding talent the chance to share her spotlight and sing in front of a live audience.

Confident soloists must be aged between 11 and 19, live within 45 minutes of the venue, and be able to commit to the date.

Kerry remains a strong supporter of young talent and regular host of online coaching, she’s delighted to offer this opportunity again, after doing so on her Queen of the West End tour.

She said: “I loved sharing the stage with rising stars on my Queen of the West End tour – there were some very special moments, and the standard of talent was super high. When I was asked if I would do it again on my Rock Anthems tour, it was an easy ‘yes’.”

Perform Now is a company providing performance opportunities and training to young talent. Its theatre school develops young people’s performance skills, and helps boost their confidence with access to industry professionals such as Kerry.
