The combined force of Queen, Adam Lambert and Stufish delivering their fourth worldwide show.

Having designed their first three world tours and their first Las Vegas residency, STUFISH have once again reunited with Queen and Adam Lambert for their fourth world tour: Rhapsody.
The show falls into three acts; the first inspired by A Night at the Opera album, the second, focusing on The Works, and the finale; The Game.
The image of the Rhapsody tour was achieved with a stage designed to appear like a traditional Opera House with a curved front edge and round pedestals at the sides. A background of opera boxes made from video screens and light-up scenery, house space for a special VIP experience to 40 onstage fans.

As the show progresses, virtual red curtains open to reveal the stage and characters in the opera boxes. The video content then transforms from the front of the opera house, through a vortex tunnel of multiple portals into the backstage and then finally ending up as if standing on stage but looking in reverse to the audience. Live camera integration of the real arena audience completes the virtual environment.
