About the Venue
The Montgomery Theatre is a historic, community-focused arts venue in Sheffield city centre, with a proud tradition of championing creativity for children, families and local communities. In January 2025, the Montgomery officially joined the Sheffield Theatres family of venues, strengthening its role as a leading participatory arts centre for young people across South Yorkshire. Today, it hosts a lively programme of amateur and professional performances, youth theatre, workshops and holiday activities, alongside many of Sheffield Theatres’ education and participation strands.
Housed in a landmark building dating back to the 19th century, the Montgomery takes its name from poet, reformer and hymn writer James Montgomery, whose belief in the power of art to drive social change still shapes the venue’s ethos. The theatre features a 420-seat auditorium and is available for hire by amateur dramatic societies and community groups. With equality, inclusion and access to cultural education at its heart, the Montgomery remains a vital social and creative hub for Sheffield.

The Queen Story is a large-scale live tribute show celebrating the music, legacy and live spectacle of Queen — one of the most iconic rock bands of all time.
This two-hour-plus production tells the story of Queen across the decades, from their early 1970s performances through to the huge stadium shows of the 1980s, culminating in a recreation of their legendary Live Aid appearance.
What can audiences expect?
The show combines:
Powerful live musicianship
Authentic costumes inspired by Queen’s most famous eras
A narrative journey through the band’s history
The performance recreates the sound, look and energy of Queen at their peak, with a strong focus on capturing the excitement of their live shows rather than simply copying recordings.
Which songs are included?
Audiences can expect to hear many of Queen’s greatest hits, including:
Killer Queen
Somebody to Love
Radio Ga Ga
Bohemian Rhapsody
The setlist is designed to appeal to lifelong fans as well as younger audiences discovering Queen’s music for the first time.
Why is this show special?
Rather than a standard tribute concert, The Queen Story presents Queen’s music as a full theatrical experience — charting the band’s evolution, sound and stagecraft. With its Live Aid finale and stadium-scale ambition, it’s a high-energy night out that blends rock concert with storytelling.
Who is this event for?
This show will appeal to:
Queen fans of all ages
Families looking for a lively evening out
Rock and live music lovers
Anyone searching for crowd-pleasing things to do in Sheffield
