The Battle of Shallowford

By Ed Simpson

Cantey V. Sutton Theatre (Reserved Seating)
October 5-21, 2007

Ed Simpson's play is an endearing story about what happens when the residents of the small town of Shallowford (based on Lewisville, NC) believe Orson Welles' radio broadcast of "War of the Worlds" to be legitimate news. They fall hook, line and sinker, and grab their pitchforks and hunting rifles, and run out to do battle with the invading Martians and save the world.

Director: Haskell Fitz-Simons
