Proscenium Players Inc. Presents: 'War of the Worlds' at Carson City's Brewery Arts Center
The Proscenium Players Inc. are performing War of the Worlds in the Brewery Art Center’s Black Box Theatre on Friday, Nov. 22 and Saturday, Nov. 23. The shows starts at 7 p.m. and doors open at 6:30 p.m.
On October 30, 1938, Orson Welles directed and narrated a radio drama adaptation of H.G. Wells’s novel War of the Worlds. Audiences tuned-in to hear the stories of Martians crash-landing on earth, not knowing it was only a play, and prompted news stories of widespread panic over a nonexistent alien invasion.
Now, PPI will bring back the horror of the alien invasion story for today’s audience — just as Welles would have imagined it. Performances will consist of readings of the teleplay for a live audience as well as broadcast on Carson City community radio at a later date. Actors will speak into microphones while they and technicians use Foley effects to fool the ears of the listener and bring this fantastic story to life.
Tickets for the show are only $18, $15 for students and seniors, and $13 for BAC members.
