...And we have just this very second booked the finest seats for next year!!!!!!

YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sooooooo excited!!!

Only a few weeks ago, and after hearing good reports about the show, I decided to get the WOTW on ebay on DVD and it absolutly blew my socks off!!! It was wonderfull, and if you have not seen it yet, please get the dvd as you will certainly not be dissapointed!! Almost all the original cast and musicians were performing, and it was wonderfull to see the now in his 70's Herbie Flowers (of Sky fame) doing his stuff brilliantly on the bass!! In fact all in all there are nearly 70 musicians on stage at any given time, and even though its live, the music is amazingly close to the original album version. There is even a 30 foot fighting machine, firing its heat ray at the audience (its a red laser!!) and ultimatly the man himself, Jeff Wayne is conducting!!
For the show next year there are some actor changes: for the Artillary man which will now be taken by Jason Donovan and a young lady from Atomic Kitten is to play Beth, the parsons wife! I dont know what happened to Julie Covington, but I do know the brilliant Phill Lynott sadly died in the 80's.
The tickets (probabally the best in the house!!) were very pricey at £70 each, but if you think how much it costs to stage this show, it does seem well worth the money!!!
Crikey........... I am already planning what to wear!!!!!!!!!!
