PANIC

Blending historical fact, a splash of fiction, a dose of comedy, and plenty of music, ‘Panic’ tells the incredible, behind-the-scenes story of Orson Welles’ notorious 1938 radio adaptation of H G Wells’ The War of the Worlds.  Many Americans tuning in mistakenly believed that the drama was a news report declaring a real invasion from Mars!  Was it an accident, or was it Welles’ plan all along, so as to get a ticket to fame in Hollywood?

This will be the UK premiere of a new musical from the writer of Thrill Me, a sold-out hit at Hampton Hill Theatre in 2023.  “The stuff of legend and a benchmark in broadcast history!”  Broadway World
