LISTEN, CAN YOU HEAR THEM DRAWING NEAR?

Jeff Wayne and The War of The Worlds team are thrilled to unveil the grand return of our iconic arena production! Brace yourselves as our 35-foot Fighting Machine with its flame-firing Heat Ray conquers stages across the UK and Ireland in March and April 2025.

Our first two cast members have been announced! For the first time in Martian history, a real-life couple will be performing as the married couple: Max George as Parson Nathaniel and Maisie Smith as Beth, his wife.

Jeff said: “Being a couple in real life will add to their on-stage charisma and chemistry. Maisie has such a melodic but powerful voice, which compliments Max’s dramatic and soulful vocals wonderfully."

Jeff Wayne will be back on his podium conducting the 8-piece Black Smoke Band and 36-piece ULLAdubULLA Strings. Liam Neeson returns in 3D Holography as The Journalist, and the final all-star cast will be announced soon!
