The 2024 edition of “War of the Worlds Week” starts now! In this episode, we take a listen one of the radio broadcasts that inspired the 1938 Mercury Theatre on the Air version of “The Wars of the Worlds”. This is “The Fall of the City” from the Columbia Workshop, written by Archibald MacLeish, directed and produced by Irving Reis, and starring Orson Welles. The fall of the city first aired on April 11, 1937 on CBS Radio. An unexpected prophecy from an unexpected source places a city in panic. All the events are reported from that city's radio broadcast station. Some of this probably sounds familiar to the 1938 “War of the Worlds” fans. The similarities don't stop there. Listen along and find out more and enjoy, “The Fall of the City”.

This Sunday on "Sunday Night Playhouse," Vintage Classic Radio proudly presents the 1937 broadcast of Macbeth, adapted by Orson Welles for his legendary Mercury Theatre on the Air. Originally aired as part of the Columbia Workshop series, this radio adaptation of William Shakespeare's tragedy captures the eerie atmosphere of ambition, betrayal, and supernatural forces that drive the doomed Scottish general. Directed by and starring Orson Welles himself as Macbeth, the production was lauded for its haunting soundscapes and intense performances, bringing Shakespeare's dark tale to life in a uniquely immersive audio experience. The supporting cast includes Agnes Moorehead as Lady Macbeth, Ray Collins as Banquo, and Martin Gabel as Macduff, with other notable voices contributing to the ensemble, all under Welles' expert direction. This gripping broadcast is a testament to Welles' flair for merging Shakespearean drama with innovative radio storytelling. Tune in to Vintage Classic Radio's "Sunday Night Playhouse" to relive this classic interpretation of one of literature's most famous tragedies, where ambition leads to a chilling downfall.
