More casting has been announced for Eric Bogosian's Pulitzer Prize-nominated play Talk Radio, about a controversial late night talk radio host.  The play will begin performances on Broadway at the Longacre Theater (220 West 48th Street) on Sunday, February 9th.  

The new additions to the cast are Christine Pedi (Forbidden Broadway, Little Me), Sebastian Stan (the films The Covenant and The Architect) and Barbara Rosenblatt.

Robert Falls, Tony-winning Director of 1999's Death Of A Salesman, whose other credits include Long Day's Journey Into Night and Shining City on Broadway, will stage the production.

Bogosian's work includes Wake Up and Smell the Coffee, SubUrbia, Pounding Nails in the Floor with my Forehead, Sex, Drugs, & Rock & Roll, and Drinking in America (Drama Desk Award). Talk Radio was a nominated finalist for the 1987 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.  This is Bogosian's first play to be produced on Broadway.  In addition, he has written screenplays for several motion pictures.  His second novel was published last year.
