ULLA!!
Inspired by the classic HG Wells novel, Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of the Worlds will head for Birmingham’s NEC Arena on April 19 2006. With plans to have five Martian Fighting Machines as tall as 30 feet, a Martian Handling and Flying
machine and the Thunder Child Frigate, it promises to be truly spectacular – and, thanks to state-of-the-art technology,
Richard Burton’s original performance will be brought back to life!
“This large-scale show is somewhere between a rock concert and very large-scale theatre production,” explains
Jeff Wayne who will be conducting The Black Smoke Band and the 48 piece ULLAdubULLA Strings (pronounced as one word: oole-dub-oole)
along with special guest Justin Hayward.The show follows the multi-award winning classic album that has become the biggest selling re-issue album this year,
and now includes a prequel showing Mars suffering from severe ecological problems forcing the Martians to leave the planet.
