Freddie on the Move by Miles Storey

Freddie Mercury, tied down on a flatbed trailer, was removed from the Canon Theatre on Yonge Street yesterday where he has been perched over the entrance during the 61-week run of the Queen musical We Will Rock You.

We Will Rock You is moving to the Panasonic Theatre, a few blocks north of the Canon, and reopens July 16. The Canon gets ready for Spamalot, opening September 9.

See more photos after the jump.
