More about The War of the Worlds:
In 1938, the legendary Mercury Theatre Company led by Orson Welles delivered the single most notorious broadcast in radio history- a riveting adaptation of H.G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds. The broadcast’s depiction of a Martian invasion was so realistic, it incited a nation-wide panic. This Halloween, pop in your earbuds as CSC brings Wells’ chilling sci-fi thriller back to life in a brand new auditory experience inspired by the Mercury Theatre’s original broadcast. This audio drama and promises to be a close encounter of the kind you won’t want to miss.
