Tom Waits fans are leaving stunned – and newcomers are finally getting it. Tom Waits War Songs tears open songs by Waits/Brennan and stitches them together into a raw, dark, rock 'n' roll experience with live band, original animation and fever-dream storytelling. More than a tribute concert, the show transforms a carefully curated collection of war songs into one theatrical story arc. Gritty, visual and emotionally charged, Tom Waits War Songs is an immersive live performance for the Waits faithful, the curious and the unconvinced.
