War of the Worlds featuring One Day on Mars
TCOE’s Stage and Space Collaborative, a joint project of the Planetarium and Science Center and Theatre Company, is holding special live, fully immersive productions of The War of the Worlds on October 24 and 25.
Broadcast from New York's Mercury Theatre in 1938, the infamous radio play – based on the novel by H. G. Wells – had some terrified listeners convinced that an actual alien invasion of Earth was taking place. The community is invited to come, sit back, and enjoy this frightening tale of an extraterrestrial takeover.
The audience begins their experience with a planetarium show, One Day on Mars. Audiences will learn about that evening’s night sky and receive an informational tour about Mars. Afterwards, they’ll take a seat and be transported back to 1938
for a fully immersive retelling of the infamous radio drama. The War of the Worlds is complete with sound effects, original art projections, and exciting live performances from talented TCOE student actors.
Recommended for ages 12 and up, all are welcome
