“This isn’t a war… It never was a war, any more than there’s war between men and ants.” - H.G. Wells 1898

Step into the heart of one of the most iconic sci-fi stories ever written as H.G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds is reimagined in a gripping solo performance by Gav Cross. This reading, delivered in the bare bones intimate style of a Victorian parlour performance, thrusts audiences into the terror and urgency of a world in chaos, consumed by the unstoppable force of a Martian invasion.

Blending the power of a Victorian reading with the immediacy of live performance, Gav Cross brings Wells’ chilling tale to life, honouring the storytelling traditions of the past while capturing the relentless dread and desperation of humanity’s struggle to survive. At its core, this production is a haunting reflection on war, fear, and the suffering of innocents, themes as urgent today as when the novel was first published.

Walk through the front of house areas and find out what survives from the original Mechanics Institute. Then descend two floors to the building's best kept secret, a preserved 19th century cobbled street and the original caretakers' quarters, hidden beneath Burnley town centre.

You’ll hear the stories and tales from the caretaker's diary and speeches from our famous guests from the long and interesting history of the Burnley Mechanics.

We do want to be considerate and inclusive as possible, we will be doing a accessibility tour in February 2027.
