CHECK IT OUT ONLINE: floridatheatre.com/80sonforsyth WELCOME LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends and Patrons, If you came to the theatre tonight via Bay Street, you may have noticed that there seems to be more sunshine in our neighborhood. That’s both a metaphor and an actual fact, because the demolition of the old City Hall and Courthouse this winter cleared out some air space. We’re excited about the forward momentum downtown, and now that the way is clear on that particular property, just a block away, we look forward to what’s coming next. The Florida Theatre has been downtown since 1927. For 92 years this historic theatre has been providing historic entertainment to the citizens of Jacksonville. A lot has happened over those decades. There were good times, and bad times. There were up times, and down times, but through it all, the Florida Theatre continued to provide terrific entertainment, because great music, dance, theatre and film never go out of style. The architects of this building had some foresight, because 92 years later, we continue to use the building for art forms that weren’t even created then. Jazz, dance and musical theatre existed then, but not in their current forms, and in many cases, the artists that created rock and roll, standup comedy, hip hop and modern dance weren’t even born yet. Those of us who currently work at the Florida Theatre are just the temporary caretakers of this building. We stand on the shoulders of those who came before us, and we pave the way for those who will come after us. One thing remains constant, however: we are here to connect the artists with you, the audience. Cheer for more, and please come back and see us again soon.

Bitte senden Sie Ihre Tickets an die Vorverkaufsstelle zurück, bei der Sie die Tickets erworben haben The Show will go on: "One Night of Queen" kommt 2020 zurück nach Dortmund! Eigentlich ist es eine schier unmögliche Aufgabe Freddie Mercury zu imitieren, denn mit dem renommierten Frontmann der legendären Rockband Queen kann so schnell keiner mithalten. Doch zwei haben es geschafft: der Schotte Gary Mullen und der Schauspieler Rami Said Malek! Mullen wirbelt schon seit über einem Jahrzehnt in der Show ONE NIGHT OF QUEEN als Freddie Mercury über die Bühne und wird dabei von der Band „The Works“ unterstützt. Neben Gary Mullen begeistert im Moment der Schauspieler Rami Said Malek als Freddie Mercury in dem preisgekrönten Film „Bohemian Rhapsody“, der seit Ende 2018 das Publikum in den Kinos weltweit in Atem hält und bei dem diesjährigen Academy Award gleich vier Oscars abgestaubt hat, unteranderem als bester Hauptdarsteller. Es ist eine große Herausforderung einen Film zu drehen, der das Leben von Freddie Mercury und der Gründung der Band Queen gerecht wird. Noch schwieriger ist es, eine Show zu kreieren, bei Es ist eine große Herausforderung einen Film zu drehen, der das Leben von Freddie Mercury und der Gründung der Band Queen gerecht wird.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ONE NIGHT OF QUEEN TO ROCK SINGAPORE AT THE SANDS THEATER, MARINA BAY SANDS Performed by GARY MULLEN AND THE WORKS Singapore, 28 February 2012 - UK‟s hugely successful red-hot rock show One Night of Queen, which celebrates the music of Queen and their late lead singer Freddie Mercury, is coming to the Sands Theater, Marina Bay Sands from 21 June 2012. One Night of Queen is a spectacular live concert, recreating the look, sound, pomp and showmanship of arguably the greatest rock band of all time. Tickets go on sale from 1 March 2012. In 1985 following their appearance at the Live Aid Concert in London, Queen were Internationally acclaimed as the best live band on Earth with Freddie Mercury as the greatest live performer of his generation.
