Coming Up >> War of the Worlds

Ladies and Gentlemen of Radio Land:

Tune in Saturday at 7:30 pm on WRMC 91.1 FM for…
THE SEASON FINALE:
“War of the Worlds”
Broadcast October 30, 1938
“I’m speaking from the roof of the Broadcasting Building, New York City. The bells you hear are ringing to warn people to evacuate the city as the Martians approach…”

Princeton astronomers scoured the countryside in search of meteorites. Brave men called recruiting stations to sign up to fight Martians. Farmers shot at tripod-like water towers. Relive the hysteria as the Middlebury Radio Theater of Thrillls and Suspense concludes its glorious first season with the most celebrated radio drama of all time, “War of the Worlds,” as adapted for the radio by Orson Wells and the Mercury Theater on the Air for Halloween, 1938. So, take your radio outside, lie beneath the stars and witness the Martian subversion of the human race.

LISTEN IN AS THE US MILITARY AND NYC ARE DECIMATED BY THE HEAT RAY AND POISON GAS!
