      <title>The War of the Worlds</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ <p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">JEFF WAYNE’S MUSICAL VERSION OF <strong>THE WAR OF THE WORLDS… <em>THE NEW GENERATION</em>!</strong></span><br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Based on HG Wells’ Classic Science Fiction Story</span><br /><br /><strong>The Dazzling, Groundbreaking Arena Production Launches a New Era</strong><br /><br /><strong>Starring <span style="text-decoration: underline;">LIAM NEESON in 3D Holography</span>, as George Herbert, The Journalist</strong><br /><br /><strong>New Double Album Coming June 2012</strong><br /><br /><em><strong>“…Dazzling…I felt a shiver of excitement...”</strong></em> - Daily Telegraph<br /><em><strong>“…Fabulous”</strong></em> **** - The Times<br /><em><strong>“…Simply Epic!”</strong></em> - The Sun<br /><em><strong>“…Who could ask for more…”</strong></em> - Evening Standard<br /><em><strong>“…Thoroughly entertaining.” “Truly impressive”</strong></em> - BBC News<br /><em><strong>“…Mind - Melting, Multi-Media Extravaganza”</strong></em> - The West Australian<br /> <em><strong>“…The whole thing is brilliant”</strong></em> - This is Lancashire<br /><em><strong>“…A two-hour spectacular of gargantuan proportions</strong></em> - This is Nottingham<br /><br /><em><strong>The Martians are back, for a new generation…</strong></em><br /><br /><br />One of the most successful stage shows of recent times, J<strong>eff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds</strong>, returns to UK Arenas with a new star and another technological leap forward.<br /><br />On November 18, 2011 <em><strong>‘The New Generation’</strong></em> of Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of The Worlds launched in conjunction with Sony Music, Live Nation and SJM Concerts, featuring a new interpretation of the classic recording followed by a major international arena tour commencing <strong>November 2012</strong>.<br /><br />Internationally acclaimed actor <strong>Liam Neeson will be seen in 3D holography</strong> as the story's narrator and leading a new cast.  Neeson will be seen in 3 ways: appearing as the first full body hologram seen on stage interacting with live actors, as an 11-foot high holographic head and shoulders hovering above the stage, and appearing within the 2-hour CGI  film projected onto the incredible 100 foot wide ‘animation wall’ which adds a true epic scale to the production.<br /><br />After 33 years since its original release, Liam takes over from Richard Burton, whose holographic head had appeared in the show since 2006, using the original narration from Jeff Wayne's classic 1978 album, a sound that has lived long in the memory and deep in the psyche of generations who have heard it.<br /><br />Over the years, <strong>Jeff </strong>was often asked how he would approach composing and producing <strong>The War of The Worlds</strong> in today’s world, rather than the era of the mid 1970s, when disco was king of the dance floor, punk was the revolutionary music of the day and science fiction was being re-discovered in the movies and on TV. <br /><br />He always answered <em>‘why fix what isn’t broken?.</em>’ He was proud of the Work and especially of all those who had contributed their varied talents to bring it to life - David Essex, Justin Hayward, Phil Lynott, Chris Thompson, Julie Covington, and of course, Richard Burton. What Jeff never predicted was the extraordinary life his musical interpretation of HG Wells’ visionary and dark Victorian tale would have.  Now some 33 years on and as Jeff approached his sixth year of touring   The War of The Worlds - Alive on Stage! and an animated feature film now in development, this same question kept returning. <br /><br /><em> “After long consideration,”</em> says Jeff, <em>“I concluded that for future productions, some of HG Wells’ storylines and characters should be re-explored. It would also give me the chance to re-interpret my compositions with the production techniques of today, exciting from a musician’s point of view.</em><br /><br /><em>“But perhaps the <strong>greatest opportunity was revisiting the main character of George Herbert, The Journalist</strong> who ‘threads’ the story together. And while it may have been the greatest opportunity, it was also the hardest decision to make because I knew that with a re-developed storyline, a new Journalist would need to be sought as Richard Burton’s original performance, was finite. </em><br /><br /><em>“And whoever that person might turn out to be, <strong>he would have to be of no less stature and quality of voice than that of Richard – an incredibly tough act to follow. </strong></em><br /><em>But once again I have been fortunate, and have attracted <strong>Liam Neeson</strong> to these New Generation productions. He has, so-to-speak, been handed the ‘baton’ from Richard Burton, and I believe audiences and listeners alike will find Liam’s interpretation no less compelling.”</em><br /><br />By good fortune, Liam is a huge fan of the original album, having purchased it when it was first released in 1978. And ironically, as the ‘new kid on the block’, he acted in a mini TV series on what turned out to be one of Richard Burton's last roles before his untimely passing. <br /><br /><br /><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><em>New Generation Facts:</em></strong></span><br />On the original 1978 double album and from 2006 when the arena tours began, Richard Burton’s audio and technological visual performances contained 74 sequences.  Liam Neeson’s Journalist contains 90.  Richard’s performance was seen in one way.  Liam will be seen in three:<br />•    <strong>As an 11-foot high holographic ‘head and shoulders’</strong> as The Journalist recounts in 1904 his story of survival from the Martian invasion of Victorian England some six years earlier. <br />•    Within CGI sequences seen on a <strong>100-foot wide ’Animation Wall’</strong>.<br />•    Perhaps the most remarkable element, and <strong>a world first in live entertainment, will see Liam Neeson appearing full body on stage interacting holographically with the show’s live performers.</strong> A triumph of technology and a remarkable performance by Liam.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Jeff Wayne will again conduct the Black Smoke Band and ULLAdubULLA Strings with <strong>musical Guest Artistes to be announced for both the new album and tour</strong>.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The new live production will also contain exciting new ingredients, as well as some of the most iconic elements returning, including:<br />•    <strong>A 3-tonne, 35-foot tall Martian Fighting Machine firing real flame Heat Rays at the audience</strong> and scanning them with its bug-like eyes, as it ‘lands’ on centre stage. <br />•    Special effects and illusions including a world first <strong>‘levitation’ and the Martian Fighting Machine’s ‘incineration’ of a cast member</strong><br />•    <strong>Leaf drops over the audience and surround sound that engulfs them</strong>, contributing to the all-encompassing experience that is The War of The Worlds.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Jeff Wayne’s double album was originally released by CBS records in 1978. It has enjoyed huge success and critical acclaim across the globe with <strong>over 15 million records sold</strong> and spending over 330 weeks in the UK Album Charts (to date) plus achieving two International hit singles – ‘Forever Autumn’ and ‘The Eve of The War’.</p>
<p><br />The War of The Worlds has also <strong>won two prestigious UK Ivor Novello Awards</strong>, the US Best Recording in Science Fiction and Fantasy (the judges included Alfred Hitchcock, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg), as well as winning for Jeff, Classic Rock’s ‘Showman of The Year’ Award.</p>
<p><br />Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of The Worlds has grown into a true classic, acquiring new generations of devoted followers since its original release.</p>
<p><br /><strong>For anyone of any age</strong>, The War of The Worlds – The New Generation is a unique double album and exciting arena show, <strong>not to be missed!</strong></p>

      <title>Cirque du Soleil - Alegria</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ <p>After the highly successful first stops of Alegria, Cirque du Soleil is about to present its internationally celebrated production in Vienna. The spectacular artistic show has cast its spell on an audience of half a million in the course of this tour alone. Breathtaking acrobatics, magical costumes and the live soundtrack are sure to make for a great evening.</p>
<p><br />“Alegria” is Spanish for luck, happiness and excitement. These are exactly the emotions inspired by this exceptional artistic show. The viewer experiences over two hours of an acrobatic tour de force, surrounded by sensational choreography and a dreamlike backdrop. Light and sound cascades amplify the imaginary character of the unique performances. With the help of 400 costumes, wigs and accessories, the 55 actors become masters of disguise.</p>
<p><br />Alegria sets new standards of acrobatics. The synchro trapeze duo contradicting the laws of gravity and the intense “Russian Bars” bursting with energy and catapulting the protagonists ten meters up into the air are outstanding.The fire-knife-dance shows the magic of danger: burning blades circle around the bodies. “Power Track” demonstrates the ardor of youth: a brilliant performance of synchronized choreography, set on a trampoline system hidden below the stage.One attraction is followed by the next: Alegria is unique experience, much more than just a show, and appeals to young and old. Cirque du Soleil seeks to resonate with people, fire their imagination and challenge their senses. The medley of acrobatics, music, dance and theatre that Alegria unites in arena size undoubtedly lives up to that intention. The multi-faceted cast of characters and the opulent optics takes the audience deep into fantastic dreamscapes.</p>
<p><br />Since 1984, the Cirque du Soleil from Quebec has developed from a group of 20 street artists into an important organization that guarantees top-class artistic entertainment. The company has more than 5.000 employees, including 1.200 artists from 50 different countries. With its celebrated incomparable production, they have already inspired an audience of over 100 millions in more than 300 cities on five continents.At the time of writing, about 21 Cirque du Soleil shows are touring the world simultaneously. The international headquarters of Cirque du Soleil is located in Montreal, Canada.</p> ]]></description>
