Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater
In 1936, It Can’t Happen Here, a stage adaptation by Sinclair Lewis of his own bestselling novel, opened simultaneously in 21 theaters in 17 states across America, one week before that year’s presidential election. It was a warning against the rise of fascism in America.
Please join us on Sunday, October 27 at 7:00, one week before Election Day, and be part of the nationwide festival to mark the 88th anniversary of the original theatrical phenomenon — and to rally voters to the polls.
This past July 19th you may have been part of the audience at WHAT who witnessed a staged reading of It Can’t Happen Here – Again! That sold out event also played at 91 locations in 71 cities and towns in 24 states, before thousands of voters. Now, on October 27th, we're going to do it again with a newly revised and updated version of the script!
It Can't Happen Here - Again
