The Barker Playhouse

<p>The Players at the Barker Playhouse present the final production of their 117<sup>th</sup> mainstage season, <b><i>TALK RADIO</i></b>. This underperformed classic, originally created by Eric Bogosian and Tad Savinar, will open Friday, May 8<sup>th</sup> and run through Sunday, May 17<sup>th</sup>. Tickets can be purchased via The Players Box Office at https://www.playersri.org/.</p>
<p>Barry Champlain, controversial regional radio host, is on the air doing what he does best: insulting the pathetic souls who call in the middle of the night to sound off. Tomorrow, Barry's show is going into national syndication, and his producer is afraid that Barry will say something that will offend the sponsors. As his professional life ascends, Barry's personal life and sanity unravel, marked by escalating threats from listeners and a confrontation with a deranged caller that may have deadly consequences.</p>
<p>Based on a true story, <i>Talk Radio</i> is even more prescient today, where podcasts have become the primary medium for what used to be AM/FM radio shock jocks (mostly). The play walks the edge between exploring the boundaries of free speech and the consequences of exploring that right. Are the so-called warriors of the First Amendment really who they seem, or is it all a facade? </p>
<p><i>Talk Radio</i> is a disturbing, often darkly humorous play. There are several triggers and hot button topics that firmly place the script in the late 1980's, but also firmly in 2026. This production will lean into a multimedia experience to tell a tense, harrowing, but necessary story.</p>
<p>West Bay Community Theater President Terry Shea makes his Barker directorial debut with <i>Talk Radio</i>, having appeared there as an actor several times, most recently in 2024’s <i>They Promised Her The Moon</i> and 2018’s <i>Deathtrap</i>. Having spent many years behind a microphone as an on-air personality, <i>Talk Radio</i> has a special place for Shea, combining his love for the mediums of theater and radio. Both have the power to make a direct, local, and immediate impact on a community – <i>Talk Radio</i> will provoke and inspire long after the “On Air” sign goes dark. </p>
