Jeff Wayne's musical version of The War of The Worlds is back with a monumental tour, arriving just in time to celebrate 130 years since the publication of HG Wells’ dark Victorian tale. The show is conducted by Jeff Wayne and featuring Liam Neeson in 3D holography as The Journalist, who recounts his story of survival from the Martian invasion of 1898.
One of the most trailblazing arena tours of all time, Jeff Wayne’s musical version of The War of The Worlds returns with a musical spectacular like none other, with the production remaining a favourite to millions around the world, exciting audiences of all ages.
The Wanted’s Max George and ex-Eastenders star Maisie Smith, met and fell in love on the 2020 series of Strictly Come Dancing, and now they’ll be playing the married couple Parson Nathaniel & wife Beth, in the iconic musical.
“The moment I met Max & Maisie I knew they were the perfect fit for the role of Nathaniel and Beth,” says Jeff Wayne “Maisie has such a melodic but powerful voice, which compliments Max’s dramatic vocals wonderfully. Plus, being a couple in real life will add to their on-stage charisma and chemistry, and I’m delighted they’ve joined the 2025 The Spirit of Man Tour as husband and wife.”
In 2006, TWOTW was already considered a cutting-edge production with six trucks filled to the brim. By 2025, marking 19 years of live touring, the production will be up to 12 trucks, with a host of new ingredients and special effects to challenge and excite the senses.
