Description
AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS - Originally released 10/2/20 Project Audion's live-transcribed cross-continental Zoom-based production for October [2020] is an episode from Orson Welles' Mercury Theatre On the Air from 1938. No, not the "War of the Worlds" which everyone knows, but "Around the World in 80 Days" which aired the week before. Welles, John Houseman, and Howard Koch condensed Jules Verne's 1872 novel into a fast-paced 60 minutes, and fewer than 20 characters (which we handle by doubling each actor's part.) Phileas Fogg's journey started October 2, 1872 at about 9 PM: Project Audion's recreation premieres exactly 148 years later! In our sterling cast: Paul Arbisi / Illinois John Bell / Alabama Norman Cline / Kentucky Aileen Corpos / Texas Dana Gonsalves / Texas Larry Groebe / Texas Pete Lutz / Texas Les Marsden / California Pete Lutz directed, and Larry Groebe produced
