Lake Havasu High School Presents War of the Worlds: Panic Broadcast

An alien invasion throws humanity into chaos in the classic sci-fi novel The War of the Worlds–but all it took to cause real-life panic in the streets was Orson Welles’s 1938 radio adaptation, which listeners took for news. Now, ten years later, the WBFR radio ensemble recreates the colorful events surrounding the infamous evening, including the full original broadcast. Complete with vintage commercials and live sound effects, this radio-play-within-a-radio-play is a thrilling homage to the form’s golden age and timely reminder of what fear can do to a society.

This high school production will be showing at the Little Theater on September 30th at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the door, $3 for students, children and seniors, $5 for adults.
