Show Synopsis
The story is set exactly 300 years in the future in a vaguely Orwellian world. Earth has been renamed as the “iPlanet” and is controlled by the Globalsoft Corporation. On the iPlanet, mainstream commercial conformity reigns, in which Ga Ga Kids watch the same movies, listen to computer-generated music, wear the same clothes and hold the same thoughts and opinions. Musical instruments are forbidden, and rock music is unknown.
Ruling Globalsoft Corporation is Killer Queen. She has heard of a prophecy that instruments have been hidden somewhere on the iPlanet in the “place of living rock”, and a “bright star” will show the way to them. She orders Khashoggi to get to the bottom of the matter and crush the rebel
Bohemians who believe in the prophecy.
