Alan Berg

[edit]

Wasn't this play inspired by the Colorado Talk Show host Alan Berg who was shot and killed outside of his home? I seem to remember Berg's story mentioned a lot by both Eric Bogosian and movie reviews read when his film was adapted by Oliver Stone. --47.157.17.126 (talk) 01:02, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think yes. The playwright mixed in elements of the alan berg story. I saw it with Liev Schreiber as the DJ. If I remember correctly, (spoiler alert), the racist caller ends up killing the protagonist - which is a very theatrical way to end the story. 2603:9001:1B04:BB00:39A7:1282:D493:DD96 (talk) 15:30, 19 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
