A Behanding In Spokane - 2010 - Broadway History , Info & More

The title is just the starting point; take a man searching for his missing hand (Christopher Walken), two con artists out to make a few hundred bucks (Anthony Mackie and Zoe Kazan), and an overly curious hotel clerk (Sam Rockwell), and the rest is up for grabs. A Behanding in Spokane is Academy Award-winner Martin McDonagh's hilariously black comedy, a world premiere which marks McDonagh's first American-set play.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR A Behanding In Spokane

A Behanding in Spokane: Sounds Crazy, No?
4 / 10

While all is not sunshine, lollipops and rainbows in Martin McDonagh's newest gruesome comedy, A Behanding In Spokane, it is, by the playwright's standards, considerably lighter fare. No cats or children are harmed, nobody's shot in the head at point-blank range and there are no pots of urine involved at any time during the playwright's first piece set in America. Yes, there are characters that have gasoline poured on them and are then threatened with a lighter, but in moments like that the real suspense lies in whether or not we're about to see a really cool special effect.

The Duchess of Malfi and A Behanding in Spokane
6 / 10

This is McDonagh's first play set in America and his second, after The Pillowman, not located in his native Ireland. He takes to certain of our idioms ('a coon's age,' 'y'know,' 'motherfucker'), but A Behanding lacks the lyricism of his earlier works. It also lacks their substance. That no one dies is not the only reason this amusing, harmless piece proves less affecting than any of his previous works. Instead of making the door to this hotel room one of the 'ten thousand several,' McDonagh has merely hung a metaphorical 'Do Not Disturb' sign on it.

BWW Interviews: BEHANDING's Zoe Kazan
by Jessica Lewis - April 19, 2010


You may know her from Broadway's recent revival of The Seagull. Or, Come Back, Little Sheba.
