Mars Society Outreach Opportunity - War of the Worlds Recreation   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #458 of 509 |
Hi everyone!

This is primarily for people in the Philadelphia area, but anyone else in the PA
chapters is welcome to participate. In particular I would request large copies
of the graphics done by the Penn State Chapter.

I received the attached letters from Alex Magoun, Ph.D. the Executive Director
of the David Sarnoff Library in Princeton, NJ. To summarize the letters - the
library, in association with the Institute for Arts and Humanities Education and
the New Jersey Antique Radio Club will present a theatrical recreation of the
radio broadcast, "War of The Worlds" on Saturday, November 1 at 7pm. This is
the 65th anniversary of the original Orson Wells broadcast.

The library is dedicated to science education. Check out their website at
www.davidsarnoff.org
The evening starts at 6pm with a Martian costume contest, then the broadcast,
then a reception.

They will waive the admission fee for anyone who comes and helps with the Mars
Society display which they have requested include our robots.

Alex has said we can set up at the back of the auditorium and will have space on
the walls to hang posters, table and chairs, and room for the robots. He
expects about a third of the 200 people in the audience will be under 16. In
addition there will be the radio club members, the performers and members of
local media.

If anyone is interested he has invited us to the NJ Antique Radio Club meeting
the evening of Friday October 10 to scout the place out. Also if anyone has any
sort of radio presentation they would put them on the agenda for the Oct 10
meeting (Earl, any of your SETI League members?)

Please let me know if you can help out on November 1st. It should be a lot of
fun. Anyone who needs a ride could take the train to the Beth Ayres station
that afternoon and I could give them a ride.

Thanks,
Gary Fisher
