Following the release of the Oscar-nominated biopic Bohemian Rhapsody, the tribute band has been playing to sold-out venues around Australia.
The band features acclaimed performer Thomas Crane, who is widely regarded as one of the best Freddie Mercury tribute artists in the world, and amazed the judges with his performance on Australia's Got Talent in 2011.
Crane and his band Bohemian Rhapsody - which features some of Australia's best musicians - bring back to life the visual excitement and stage energy for which Queen are renowned.
Bohemian Rhapsody starts their performance from the music of the 1970's - the decade and leather and long hair, through to the 80's and 90's when Queen were the hottest act in music, with such immortal rock hits as Crazy Little Thing Called Love, We Will Rock You, We Are The Champions and of course, Bohemian Rhapsody.
A huge part of the Queen live experience was their stage presence, flamboyance, theatrics and energy.
At a Bohemian Rhapsody show, none of this is lost in translation, the posturing and preening, the strutting and showmanship - everything is here, right down to the trademark cheeky banter and singing contests between Freddie and his audience.
Bohemian Rhapsody has played to packed houses and passionate audiences, with a strong fan base throughout Australia and overseas; a broad collection of fans from teenagers through to retirees - who all share a love of timeless rock music.
The show will start at 8pm. Tickets are available at the Cessnock Performing Arts Centre box office, by calling 4993 4266 or online at cessnockperformingartscentre.com.au.
