Ep. 68 - The Day the Earth Stood Still - Lux Radio Theater

There is an ever-present question that has puzzled and intrigued our world for centuries. Is there life on any of the other planets? Madison will answer this question as she steps in for the spaceman, Klaatu, visiting Washington D.C. in the early 1950s. Join us for this adaptation of the Lux Radio Theater’s presentation of the absolute sci-fi classic, “The Day the Earth Stood Still.” Is the spacewoman dangerous? Will science prevail over military might? Can a young boy and his mother show Madison that human beings are worth saving? Or will Gort end all living creatures on this planet? Repeat after me… “Madison, barada, nikto…”
