The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a science fiction comedy radio series written by Douglas Adams, and originally broadcast in the United Kingdom by BBC Radio 4 in 1978.

The first four episodes of this series were later adapted by Adams into his best-selling novel of the same title.

The plot follows the adventures of hapless Englishman Arthur Dent and his friend Ford Prefect, an alien who writes for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, a pan-galactic encyclopedia and travel guide.

Director Jerry McMahon and Technical Producer Daniel Tang are honoring every zany detail of the original radio script in The Cannon Theatre’s online radio show production of the first four episodes this March.

What’s more, this audio show will be illustrated by an exhibit of original art by various talented artists from the local area and beyond.

These original pieces of art will be auctioned on The Cannon Theatre’s Facebook page after the show concludes.

Bidders will have the opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind art and to support both the individual artists and the theater.

There will be an opening night virtual watch party Friday March 5, at 7:30 PM Eastern time.

The show can then be accessed online by ticket holders at any time from March 5 to March 14 at the secure link provided upon ticket purchase.

Tickets are available at www.thecannontheatre.org, and are $10 for single admission, $25 per family.
