Roger Taylor Has A Golden Statue Of Freddie Mercury In His Garden

we-will-rock-you-freddie-mercury-dominion-theatreFor 12 years, while the Ben Elton penned musical We Will Rock You played in London’s West End, a giant golden statue of Freddie Mercury stood above the marquee of the Dominion Theatre.

Now that statue stands in the garden of Queen drummer Roger Taylor, reports Radio Times. And apparently Brian May isn’t happy about it.

“It’s in Roger Taylor’s garden, which I believe Brian May is not happy with,” Ben Elton told Radio Times. “Roger nicked it, literally. He hired a truck and just took it.”

We Will Rock You opened at the Dominion in 2002. When it wrapped up earlier this year, both Brian May and Roger Taylor participated in the final performance.

The show has been seen by over 16 million people around the globe and is among the top ten longest-running musical’s in the West End’s history.
