Step aside HG Wells, take a break Jeff Wayne, go back to your trailer Tom Cruise – Lamphouse is tackling War of the Worlds and they're doing it with absolutely no budget! Featuring one actor, a loop pedal, lots of questionable mime, the planet Mars and at least two absolutely terrifying (definitely not made out of card) tripod puppets, War of the Worlds (On a Budget) is the musical comedy action adventure you didn't know you needed! ***** (TheatreScotland.co.uk). **** (Stage). **** (TheReviewsHub.com). 'Must See' (FringeReview.co.uk).
