The third show of our 2024 Season, "Talk Radio" is a Pulitzer Prize Finalist drama written by Eric Bogosian, who would go on to star in the Oliver Stone directed film version in 1988. The story follows Barry Champlain, a popular Cleveland-area shock jock, on the eve of his radio show's national syndication. A host of troubled and attention-seeking callers fill his nightly program with a variety of issues… political, social, and even personal vendettas. More relevant now than ever, this work about the world of 1980s call-in talk radio holds a mirror up to current social media culture and the psychological effects of ‘doomscrolling.’
