The War of The Worlds: The Immersive Experience “dazzling, loud, great sets, funny, professionally done, and highly entertaining”

A couple of weeks ago Stuart and I went to see the immersive War of The Worlds show (or to give its full title - Jeff Wayne’s Musical Version of The War of The Worlds: The Immersive Experience) in London's glitzy Aldgate.
 
The show was fab; dazzling, loud, great sets, funny (if a little hammy) acting, professionally done, and highly entertaining.
 
It combines immersive theatre, virtual reality, augmented reality, holograms and cutting-edge technology, all set to Jeff Wayne's iconic score; giving us the chance to live through the Martian invasion of 1898. Remember that?
 
The VR was great (you put on headsets at various points). Half way through the show there is a bar so you can take a breather (and it's the rare place you can take photos). 
 
Recommended.
