THE WAR OF THE WORLDS, written by Howard Koch and originally directed by Orson Welles, is the dramatic tale of an extraterrestrial takeover from the planet Mars. In a filmed recreation of this infamous radio play, the HMHS Drama Club takes you inside the studio of New York’s Mercury Theatre on the night of the original broadcast, October 30, 1938.
