Video: Casey Donovan & Brian Mannix talk We Will Rock You, Queen, and more!

In the video below, powerhouse diva Casey Donovan talks role research and bringing out her inner bitch to play the stellar role of the Killer Queen, and legendary rocker Brian Mannix, who plays the father figure of the Bohemians. He describes the seriously fun role of Buddy as ‘a confident idiot’. It’s excellent.
