Freddie Mercury
27 September 2019 13:00 - 13:30
Freddie Mercury, whose birthday falls in September, has been acknowledged as one of the greatest lead singers in the history of rock music. With interest in his legacy still growing, partly due to last year’s film Bohemian Rhapsody (the highest-grossing musical biographical film of all time), he continues to enthral and command respect for his immense talents.
‘At last a massive tribute to a massive talent’
Steve Harley, Cockney Rebel
