The curtain has closed on We Will Rock You after the cast raised the roof at the Lochgelly Centre with five electric performances.

Lochgelly and District Amateur Musical Association (LADAMA) belted out some of Queen's most iconic tracks, with energetic choreography telling the story of a futuristic world where live music is banned.

The run began last Wednesday and concluded on Saturday night with a majestic show.

Featuring hits such as Bohemian Rhapsody, Somebody to Love and Another One Bites the Dust, the cast wowed audiences, many of whom have already been in touch to share their positive feedback.

One of the group's committee members, Brian Faichney, said: "We had good crowds, we're very appreciative, and we had standing ovations at every performance! We felt the energy from the crowd.

"Everybody on stage absolutely loved it; the show was something they'd been wanting to do for a while.

"They ended on a high, but you get post-show blues once it's all over. They wake up on Sunday morning, and think, 'Oh no, what are we going to do now!!"

A stand-out was the band's presence on stage, instead of the pit, and in particular Mark Austin's skilled guitar solo during Bohemian Rhapsody.

Brian says the cast will now take a well-deserved break over the summer before rehearsals start in September for the 2027 show, Annie.

He continued: "Thanks to everyone who helped make the production happen, stage crew, backstage, lighting, sound, dressing room, front of house, the Lochgelly Centre staff and our incredible audiences."
