Eric Bogosian will host post-show talkbacks of his Broadway play Talk Radio on March 1 and 2. The production, which is directed by Tony Award winner Robert Falls, will open officially on March 11.
Talk Radio was first seen at The Public Theater in 1987, with Bogosian in the starring role. The play concerns a controversial radio host, Barry Champlain, who becomes overwhelmed by the hatred that surrounds his program just before it goes national.
The Broadway production stars Tony winner Liev Schreiber as Barry. The cast features Peter Hermann, Stephanie March, Sebastian Stan, Michael Laurence, Christine Pedi, Barbara Rosenblatt, Adam Sietz, Marc Thompson, and Cornell Womack.
In related news, Schreiber told television talk show host Conan O’Brien this week that he and his longtime girlfriend, former Oscar nominee Naomi Watts, are expecting a child together. The first official announcement came on Sunday from the fashion house Escada, which dressed Watts for this year’s Academy Awards.
