Talk Radio

Last night Liz and I saw Talk Radio on Broadway. Liev Schreiber was in the lead, and he was absolutely great. Just great. Talk Radio originally kicked off around 1987. It was written by Eric Bogosian, who played the original lead. He also reprised the role in the movie version, which was directed by Oliver Stone. I haven’t seen the movie in many years, but that was quite good too.

Talk Radio is about fictional radio shock jock Barry Champlain (Schreiber) who had a night time talk show in Cleveland during the late 1980s. Think of an angrier Howard Stern who’s heavy into politics. His views are extreme–and hilarious–and the play unfolds over one night on the air. So it’s mostly a one-man-show, and again, Schreiber is fantastic.

Highly recommended.
