Students from West Somerset College are set to stage a performance of the musical We Will Rock You at the Regal Theatre in Minehead.

The well known West End musical by Queen and Ben Elton tells the story of a rebellion against an authoritarian regime who are determined to ban pop music.

Lorraine Ahern, producer for the student production told the Free Press: "The college wanted to put together a musical and I came forward to say I was happy to produce the show for them."

"This is a way of trying to promote performing arts within schools and we’re hoping moving forward this will be the basis of beginning to do more productions and to create a budget for the future of investing in performing arts and investing in students and the young people of West Somerset. "

The show will run on February 23 and February 24 at 7 30pm. Tickets start from £8.
