Jeff Wayne’s – musical version of The War of The Worlds Live! The Concert Experience at Waterfront Hall, Belfast

Jeff Wayne’s legendary double-album, brought to life with West End performers, live band, orchestra and animation is now coming to the Waterfront Hall, Belfast – an unmissable spectacle across two nights in the iconic venue.

Jeff says: “It’s a great thrill to announce that a special concert rendition of my original double album is to tour the UK in October next year – a first of its kind on our home shores.”

“Performing at concert and theatre venues, it will give the audiences a different perspective of my musical version, stripping the ‘spectacle’ of my arena tours back down to its foundation…the music!”

Jeff Wayne (born July 1, 1943) is an American-British composer, arranger, and producer, best known for his 1978 concept album, Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of the Worlds. A massively successful retelling of H.G. Wells’ novel. The double album sold millions of copies worldwide and spawned hits like “Forever Autumn”.

For this concert tour, Jeff Wayne will be stepping back from the podium, but the production will showcase exceptional artists from the West End and other major performing mediums, supported by a band, orchestra, animation and other concert elements. It will stand as a true companion to his previous arena tours.
