Doctor Who stage show announced

Tour kicks off in London on 8 October

Matt Smith will not star in the stage show, but will record video scenes for it

Doctor Who is being turned into a touring stage show.

The new production will be a mix of live music, special effects and pre-recorded video scenes starring current Time Lord Matt Smith.

The show's story has been developed by executive producer Steven Moffat and will feature popular villains like the Daleks and Cybermen.

‘This is everything I ever wanted since I was 11,' he says.

‘A live show, with all the coolest Doctor Who monsters, a proper story, and brand new screen material for Matt Smith's Doctor!  

‘I'll be writing scenes for it, and probably attending every single night!'

The show will kick off in London on 8 October, before heading to Sheffield, Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, Cardiff, Liverpool and Belfast.
 
Tickets for Doctor Who Live go on sale at 9am on 21 May. To book, call the Ticketmaster 24-hour hotline on 0844 847 1963 or visit www.doctorwholive.com.
