The War of the Worlds Radio Play

On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles and the Mercury Theatre Company performed an adaptation of H.G. Wells' 1898 novel, The War of the Worlds. The broadcast caused a panic when hundreds of listeners took the fictional story of Martians attacking the Earth as fact.

Join us this Halloween season as the CHS Advanced Theatre class recreate this infamous piece of radio theatre, virtually, with a script updated specifically for 2020.
