Rhydian Roberts to share stage with 11ft 3D Richard Burton
Former X Factor contestant Rhydian Roberts is to perform in a new stage production of War Of The Worlds, joined by a holographic image of Welsh actor Richard Burton.
Roberts will perform as Parson Nathaniel in the new musical made famous by Jeff Wayne. He will star alongside Jason Donovan and ex-Atomic Kitten Liz McLarnon.
, "My dream has always been to appear in a musical which tours large arenas and I'm very excited to be joining such an incredible cast for The War of the Worlds 2010 tour."
"I am a big fan of Jeff Wayne and I grew up listening to the classic album, so it's very special to be performing one of the main roles of Parson Nathaniel - even more so given that I will share the stage with an 11-foot floating 3D hologram of my fellow countryman, Richard Burton, 26 years after his death!"
Wayne said, "Rhydian is an incredibly talented singer whose range and depth of voice will suit this role perfectly. I am delighted to welcome him into this year's production."
