- #jasondonovan & #CarrieHopeFletcher singing 'The Spirit Of Man' live in Manchester Arena on the #waroftheworlds 40th anniversary arena tour 2/12/2018
Carrie was my first show live and still the best as far as I'm concerned
Carrie's voice is fantastic, so lucky being able to sing like that, so effortless xx
This was the best cast to date. Jason and Carrie were as good as they have ever been in these parts. Nathan James was epic as the voice of humanity, as were Newton Faulkner singing the journalist's thoughts, Adam Garcia as the Artilleryman and Anna-Marie Wayne as the Journalist's Fiancée!
I just watched another video of this from the first tour 4 years ago. It’s like nothing has changed.
Thank you for uploading this. Carrie’s voice is just effortlessly powerful and Jason was just amazing. I saw it in Newcastle and these two stole the show for me.
I’m gutted though that on the War of the worlds CD and in fact the recording that it wasn’t Carrie Hope Fletcher doing Beth, Gary Barlow wasn’t the voice of the journalist and on the CD it wasn’t Jason Donovan. The two people that they had to do Beth and Parson Nathanial on the CD really annoyed me (inferior to these two)
@@ZStitchDisneyFan have you seen war of worlds musical with Russell Watson and tara blaise that's absolutely amazing better than this one Richard burton legends never die stay safe takecare
Love this song! My favorite song in the show. Jason is amazing and Carrie is STUNNING.
I agree 😍
Russell Watson tara blaise did musical absolutely brilliant stay safe everyone takecare
I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND THE SONG, WHATS IT CALLED!!!
@@x_Clace_x This song is called The Spirit Of Man
Wow, this part is great for Carrie, amazing. Her voice sounds absolutely fantastic.
The dress is so weird though. I don't really think it suits Beth at all. Not Carrie's fault, of course, Carrie's actually amazing in this.
It's set in Victorian times ☺
@@Giggirl Well, yes, I get the concept but it's veeeery mildly inspired by the actual 1880s fashion and imo it's way too flashy. I def prefer the one from 4 years back.
That being said, it is nitpicking, I know :D love Carrie in this.
I was lucky enough to meet Jeff Wayne hes a lovely man he signed ever persons bit of paper
Watched this on Saturday 8th December.. At Birmingham, What An Absolutely Fantastic Show.. Got the Record, Got the Bluray, Got the CD... Now I've Got The Tshirt 😁⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This woman is power. She makes me feel like anything is possible. Such a goddess!
jason donovan must be a big fan of jeff wayne. ive seen wotw 3 times. 2010 2012 and 2014. he played the artilleryman in 2010 and nathaniel in the other 2.
She´s amazing
One of my fave songs in the war of the worlds
I was there that night, amazing production. Jason Donovan is just incredible as Parson Nathaniel, he lives the part.
When the WOTW came to Brisbane Australia. We had Rachel Beck & Shannon Noll. It was Brilliant Electrifying & it would send Goose Bumps to me. The Whole Concert was Amazing with all the Original Cast Singing. IT was Just one Concert you can never forget !! just Brilliant. I really do hope they come into Concert again. I really do !!!
Everyone in this cast absolutely shines

Oh my gosh thank you soooo much for uploading this i wanted to see this so bad!!
Fantastic show!
I love Carrie's voice it's just so beautiful
Make this into a film already Jeff!
That would be interesting to see.
How exactly would it work though? Would you make a realistic, dark and gritty recreation of the book with the characters and plot lines from the book, but with the music and Martians from Jeff Wayne’s the war of the worlds?
So like, it’s set in 1898, August. (At least that’s when the ten shots from Mars occur), then maybe say the actual invasion is set in Autumn. Then just keep it focused as a First-Person Survival movie, as the Martians begin to invade England. - And yea, you get the idea. All I’ll say is that I would change a few things around to be more in-sync with the plot of the book perhaps.-
Like, the musical makes The day of The Cylinder in Horsell Common unscrewing and opening, basically Three days.
Starting in The Eve of the war, when it arrives and ogilvy visits it- and ending with the arrival of the second cylinder. I think it would be better, to have all that occur in One-Day. Then have the Martians go on to invade Weybridge and then eventually London in Day 2 perhaps? I don’t know.

Idea.
The story begins with the “No One Would Have Believed...” segment/opening narration. Then it cuts to The Narrator (Herbert George, I believe his name is in the musical canon) with Ogilvy in his observatory, observing Mars. Where they observe the first shot on Mars, using a telescope, Midnight on The twelfth of august.
Then it basically jumps ahead, to when the first cylinder arrives- And that’s when the story really begins. Ogilvy arrives first and sees the weird shape of the Martian cylinder in Horsell common. Then a crowd gathers on the common, then finally the cylinder opens- They see the Martian inside and then the Heat Ray torches the place.
Herbert survives and makes it back home to Maybury Hill, where he basically collapses from the sudden fear and excitement.
The Martians are busy working on their machines, Herbert wakes up, later that same day to see the news of the “Men From Mars”- And then later on, The military arrive in the afternoon to take care of the situation.- And likely begin evacuating and so on.- Then at evening, a violent crash as the Martians began to massacre the military troops, Herbert hides out, in his cellar during this whole ordeal. At midnight, he can see the arrival of the second cylinder, landing near London.-
The next morning, Herbert meets the Artilleryman who explains giant mechanical tripods have crawled out of the ground and killed everything in the night and that a second cylinder landed near London.- And so, the artilleryman and Herbert start their way to London, cuz’ well Herbert’s wife Carrie might be in danger now.
They see that Woking, Byfleet and so on- are in complete utter ruins, all dead. They find six cannons with gunners standing by however, that direct them towards Weybridge. At Weybridge, they can take a ferry to reach London safely.- A massive evacuation of Surrey was in progress.
Then, four tripods attack- (this is the first real scene with them)- then a fifth appears and destroys a town. And then the five tripods utterly annihilate Weybridge and surrounding towns and villages. Eventually, the six cannons manage to take down one tripod, only to be then destroyed.
-
Now, Of course- Herbert escapes by a miracle and goes on to meet up with refugees heading to London. You probably know the rest of the story. All I’m asking is, should it do a Three-day jump? Or keep it in the same day?
I feel like the Martians would be able to make it to London that day, tbh- Knowing how quick and vicious they’re being during the invasion. Idk, give feedback-
@@TGM_Productions this is incredible, how long did this take you to write.
@@mielle7803
Uh. 10 minutes?
@@TGM_Productions you wrote so much
@@mielle7803
Maybe 15 minutes then. I don’t know. I’ve already had ideas for Wotw adaptations for years now, so it’s kinda just- a skill now to write these things out.
Carrie, should audition for Mary Magdalen in JCS, she shows the same strength in this part, character wise
Did they end up releasing this version/cast of the show as an album/DVD in the end?
Nope.
I cannot freaking wait to see this on the 13th!!!!!
I hope you enjoy it
So what did you think?
It was incredible the whole show !!!
I love Jeff
Would you happened to have this on google drive or mega or mediafire???
Can anyone explain the show to me?
mechaguess so nobody plays the journalist he’s just a voice over?
@mechaguess that sounds so cool it would be amazing to watch
@mechaguess Great explanation! The on-stage hologram was amazing. I'm very familiar with the Richard Burton version and I hadn't heard the Liam Neeson narration until Birmingham last night but I thought it worked really well.
angst well he’s Liam Neeson but he appears as a hologram onstage and as a video on the screens
Do you have the full recording?
No just the ones I posted on here x
do you have the seen were she dies ?
Sorry no x
scene*
tea bitch the 2nd That scene is in this video: ua-cam.com/video/J4rCLPYHXfc/v-deo.html at 12:10. You don't actually see her die, though. She's not on the stage at the time.
+CrankyPants ah i see thank you so much !!!
Poor Beth... desperately trying to help Nathaniel who's mental health issues were playing havoc on him. I was once like Beth...and my now ex girlfriend was like Nathaniel when her world collapsed beneath her. I tried and tried but to no avail.
My favourite. My ex husband and I saw this live in Dec 2018. We divorced after 36 turbulent years. I will always think of him when I hear these songs.
