The War Of The Worlds [Pantaloons]

No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's...

"And fewer would have believed in the first years of the twenty-first century that H. G. Wells? science fiction classic would be performed live by just four actors with intelligences lesser than average?

The critically-acclaimed Pantaloons invade the stage in this funny yet faithful new adaptation as they use musical instruments, puppetry and, um, enthusiasm to recreate deadly heat-rays, giant fighting-machines, squidgy tentacled Martians and interplanetary warfare on an epic scale.

The chances of success? A million to one?"

"The Pantaloons are a young, vibrant theatre company who bring what we consider to be a vital sense of ?play? back to classical performance. In our theatre, your imagination is just as important as ours."
