THEATER TALK Welcomes BETWEEN RIVERSIDE & CRAZY's Creative Team Today
|
In an all new THEATER TALK, three of Theater Talk's favorite guests are welcomed back to the show - playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis, actor Stephen McKinley Henderson and director Austin Pendleton. The trio discusses their collaboration on Guirgis' new play, Between Riverside and Crazy at the Second Stage Theatre, about the off beat world of an aging police officer whose career was cut short in a shooting. In a freewheeling conversation, they also talk about the inspirations for their successful careers, as well as the late Philip Seymour Hoffman, who got his first break from Pendleton and later was Guirgis' mentor and collaborator.
The new edition of THEATER TALK, co-hosted by Michael Riedel of the New York Post and producer Susan Haskins, premieres in the New York metropolitan area today, February 13 (2015) at 1 AM (early Saturday morning) on Thirteen/PBS, with repeats on CUNY TV* on Saturday 2/14 at 8:30 PM, Sunday 2/15 at 12:30 PM, and Monday 2/16 at 7:30 AM, 1:30 PM, and 7:30 PM.
*CUNY TV, the City University of New York television station, is broadcast over-the-air in the New York metropolitan area on digital Ch. 25.3, and cablecast in the 5 boroughs of New York City on Ch. 75 (Time Warner and Optimum Brooklyn), Ch. 77 (RCN), and Ch. 30 (Verizon FiOS).
