“TALK RADIO” is a 90-minute show with no intermission.
Director Dan Whitehead discussed the production, “I think it’s interesting how despite being written in the 80s, it’s still fitting for today. I’ve always had an interest in the medium of radio and podcasting, so it’s exciting to direct a play about a radio show. It’s a challenge to direct because the callers of the radio show are all offstage! They don’t interact directly with Barry, the host. It’s been great seeing the connection the actors can have just by using their voices. Listening is so important.”
From the visionary mind of Eric Bogosian, “Talk Radio” immerses audiences into the chaotic realm of Barry Champlain, a controversial radio host whose wit and unfiltered opinions captivate listeners. Set against the backdrop of a bustling radio station, the play unravels throughout one fateful evening, delving deep into the complexities of human nature.
“Talk Radio” is more than just a play; it’s an exploration of the power of words and the impact of media in an ever-changing world. With its raw authenticity, this production invites the audience to confront the uncomfortable truths that lie beneath the surface of contemporary society.
Don’t miss your chance to see this exciting play at Dover Little Theatre!
“Talk Radio” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. www.concordtheatricals.com.
