An off-Broadway sensation in 1987, Eric Bogosian's Talk Radio is headed to Broadway in a new production starring Tony Award winner Liev Schreiber. Controversial late-night radio host Barry Champlain is preparing to expand his popular talk show from Cleveland to a nationwide audience. On one memorable night, Champlain faces a variety of challenging callers and reveals his true feelings on the air live. Schreiber's rich, commanding voice—familiar to theatergoers from his acclaimed performances in Macbeth, Hamlet, Henry V and other classic plays, as well as his award-winning performance in Glengarry Glen Ross—is the ideal match for Bogosian's charismatic leading character. Tony-winning director Robert Falls (Death of a Salesman, Shining City) tackles the crackling script in what is sure to be a major event of the Broadway season.
