Join us for a live re-creation of one of the most infamous radio broadcasts in history. “War of the Worlds” originally aired nationwide over the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) radio network in 1938, directed and narrated by Orson Welles. Presented in the style of live news bulletins, many listeners believed a real Martian invasion was taking place.
Performed by 11 After Theatre Company and based on the novel by H.G. Wells.
