Stage Tube: Christopher Walken Talks Acting "Process" with Riedel on Theater Talk

Last week, Theater Talk's Michael Riedel and Susan Haskins sat down with Christopher Walken, the newly Tony-nominated star of A BEHANDING IN SPOKANE to discuss his celebrated performance and how he goes about preparing for his notoriously off-brat roles.

There are only 4 more weeks to see A BEHANDING IN SPOKANE starring Academy Award-winner Christopher Walken, who just received Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle nominations for his role, Sam Rockwell, Anthony Mackie and Zoe Kazan. A BEHANDING IN SPOKANE is playing on Broadway at the Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 West 45th Street). Directed by John Crowley, the play opened March 4 and will play a strict 16-week engagement, through June 6 only.

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

The design team is comprised of Scott Pask (Scenic and Costume), who won a Tony Award for his set design for The Pillowman, and Brian MacDevitt (Lighting), who won a Tony Award for his lighting design for The Pillowman.
