A few updates regarding Jeff Wayne's Musical Version Of The War Of The Worlds.
Firstly, it seems that the promised CGI film has gone up in 'black' smoke! There has been no word in almost two years and you can pretty much regard it as a no-go for the forseeable future unfortunately. This is a bit of a bummer for me because I was hoping it would happen sooner rather than five years later, if it does happen that is.
Secondly, there is a new Flash game, which is accessible via the the official site (http://www.thewaroftheworlds.com/). I have yet to play it but hey, all fans should love it. Check it out here (http://www.kerbgames.com/Play/?contentId=704).
Thirdly, a 30th anniversary tour has been announced for June 2009 onwards. Check out the following message by Jeff Wayne:
I am delighted to officially announce that in JUNE 2009 we are going back out on the road for the third time in 3 years!
In celebration of 30 years since the release of the original recording, The War of The Worlds will soon be announcing a special 30th Anniversary tour to play all the major Arenas in the UK before heading off to other territories.
I would never have believed that 30 years after the album's release, The War of The Worlds would be reaching more people than ever before, especially now in Live Entertainment!
In this special anniversary year, our team are working on developing exciting new ingredients and special effects to make the 2009 Tour the most exciting production yet!
You can now access the exclusive pre-sale of tickets from September 30th, 2008 only on this website. Any remaining tickets will go on General Sale on October 3rd.
So do please feel free to scroll down and register your email address with us so we can let you know about the exciting developments and offers over the coming months. If you want to register your mobile number with us we will send you a free text message to let you know when tickets go on sale.
