Who is up for some way cool radio this Wednesday night? Tonight at 7pm KCMO time KKFI is offering LA Theatre Works presentation of The War of the Worlds! Yes–streaming online via www.kkfi.org everyone can tune into Leonard Nimoy’s–and other Star Trekers–performance of the radio show that terrified people with its soundcast reality created by Orson Welles based on H.G. Wells’ 1938 novel. If you’re game, pop some corn, turn off the lights, stream KKFI online for LA Theatre and see how scary radio can be in the dark!
If you click on the orange & white poster the link will take you to a radio site where you can get an earful of the original broadcast.

To Do Lists–yikes! I did take my own suggestion and listen to LA Theatre Works’ presentation in the dark–it waw a very interesting hour of SOUND–especially when the first assualt was related. Nimoy’s voice is really great for such a show.
