A Spectacular Tribute to Queen and Freddie Mercury
The New Show Must Go On is a dazzling performance built around the legendary music of Queen. With top-tier vocalists, costumes true to the band’s style, and stunning lighting design, the show is a powerful tribute to the most charismatic frontman of all time – Freddie Mercury.
Celebrating a Legacy
It’s been 55 years since Queen was founded – arguably the greatest band of all time. And soon it will be 80 years since Freddie Mercury’s birth. Now more than ever, it’s time for a celebratory tour honoring Queen and Freddie!
Launching in early October 2025, the revamped Show Must Go On brings even more power and passion than before:
-
Fresh visual storytelling
-
A new script
-
Additional songs
-
Even more fiery energy on stage
This show will leave no one untouched.
A Stellar Cast and Powerful Music
Mikael Saari stars as Freddie Mercury. Known for his captivating Queen performances on Tähdet, Tähdet and as a two-time finalist in Finland’s UMK competition, Mikael has also shone in leading roles at Finland’s largest theaters.
The performance tells the story of Queen, interwoven with the comical journey of a fictional Finnish band called Bohemians, who set out to conquer the world. While Bohemians deliver passionate interpretations of Queen’s hits, their trip to London is anything but smooth!
The show features a professional band that dives deep into Queen’s vibrant soundscape, delivering it all—and more. You’ll hear iconic anthems like:
I Want It All, Bohemian Rhapsody, We Are the Champions, Show Must Go On, Under Pressure, Another One Bites the Dust, Hammer to Fall, Barcelona, Innuendo—and many, many more.
