Star Trek meets Welles's Martians

[Wellesnet]

One-time only performance. Sounds like a lot of fun if you afford a ticket:

IF they don't camp it!

I've seen/heard several solid recreations of the piece; but one live-on-stage here in NYC was infuriating:

The whole thing was played with a tone of "nudge, nudge, wink, wink - wasn't radio a quaint little thing, and isn't this all silly?"

Not THIS show, from THIS team, folks.

I've only seen one stage presentation of it, last year at the Woodstock Welles fest, and fortunately that was played pretty straight, and with a lot of enthusiasm. It seems to me that the main appeal of these kinds of recreations is that they give you the feeling of being in a studio audience. I don't know how a camped up approach would work with that.

Doesn't seem to be much online feedback about the Star Trek performance.
