War of the Worlds Radio play!
The Dinnerbox Series continues - presenting live theater in your favorite local restaurants!
Among the most famous, or infamous, adaptations of HG Wells "War of the Worlds" is the 1938 radio broadcast that was narrated and directed by Orson Welles and the "Mercury Theater on the air." The first two-thirds of the 60-minute broadcast were presented as a news bulletin and led to outrage and panic by some listeners who had believed the events described in the program were real!
Join award-winning, stage actor Damian Gillen, as he takes on HG Wells...and Orson Welles... in a classic, campy, sci-fi comedy. He is going solo for this production, so he is going to be needing some extra special help from the AUDIENCE, providing some key sound effects, special effects and play some of the characters too!
WHEN: OCTOBER 31st - One night only! Doors open at 6pm for dinner & drinks, Show starts at 7:30PM.
HALLOWEEN COSTUME PARTY! There will be a Costume party & Contest will be held, so dress up in costume to win prizes, tickets & T-shirt giveaways!
