originally published: 04/05/2024

(DOVER, NJ) -- Dover Little Theatre presents Talk Radio by Eric Bogosian across three weekends in April. This is a thought-provoking play that delves into the world of media and the power it holds over society.

From the visionary mind of Eric Bogosian, "Talk Radio" immerses audiences into the chaotic realm of Barry Champlain, a controversial radio host whose wit and unfiltered opinions captivate listeners. Set against the backdrop of a bustling radio station, the play unravels over the course of one fateful evening, delving deep into the complexities of human nature.

"Talk Radio" is more than just a play; it's an exploration of the power of words and the impact of media in an ever-changing world. With its raw authenticity, this production invites the audience to confront the uncomfortable truths that lie beneath the surface of contemporary society.

Performances take place April 5-6, 12-13, 19-20 at 8:00pm and April 7 & 14 at 2:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online. The play is performed without an intermission. Dover Little Theatre is located at 69 Elliott Street in Dover, New Jersey.

Note: This show is not recommended for those under 17 due to language, themes, smoking, and simulated animal violence.

Dover Little Theatre is an intimate 100 seat theatre located just off Blackwell Street in Historic Dover, New Jersey.  This hidden gem was established in 1933 through the efforts of a dedicated group of theatre enthusiasts in the Dover Women’s Club who sought to establish a “home” for theatrical arts and artists of all kinds.

Succeeding with their vision, DLT has become a home for all interested in theatre- whether it is on stage, behind the scenes, or as an audience member.

DLT brings the community into community theatre by producing mainstage productions and children’s theatre, hosting comedy troupes, concerts, and all sorts of other special events produced and run only by volunteers.
