The Mercury Theater

[Charles Darnay]

Orson Well's "The Murcury Theater' produced some fantastic radio productions of amazing literature - the most well known was his production of War of the Worlds. This website has all the shows to download including a seven part presentation of Les Miserables. I reccomend it to any Hugo fan. Also, check out War of the Worlds. It was first broadcast on hallowween in 1938.... Wells managed to convince the people that this broadcast was real, that aliens were really coming down to Earth - a great moment in radio history - check it out. (and I appologize if this is not the appropriate place to post this).

Thanks for the link, Charles! I have been searching for that broadcast on google, but couldn't find it. But this site is great!
