Join L.A. Theatre Works, America's premier radio theatre company, for a special back-to-back double bill of chills, thrills and great literature as they present two masterpieces of science fiction and adventure: War of the Worlds & The Lost World. The original 1938 broadcast of War of the Worlds by Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre of the Air sent the nation into a panic over what they thought was an "eyewitness report" of an actual alien invasion. L.A. Theatre Works recreates that experience in gripping detail. The Lost World, based on a story by Arthur Conan Doyle, follows the expedition of a group of scientists. Cut off from the outside world on a primeval plateau, the fearless explorers discover a land where dinosaurs have evolved beside ape-men and the fate of the human race hangs in the balance.
L.A. Theatre Works (LATW) has been the foremost radio theater company in the United States for two decades. Broadcast in America on NPR and XM Satellite Radio, internationally on the BBC, CBC, Voice of America and many other English language networks, LATW has single-handedly brought the finest recorded dramatic literature into the homes of millions. The company records the majority of its productions annually in Los Angeles before an enthusiastic and loyal audience of season subscribers.
