But trying out an American setting as opposed to an Irish one is proving a challenging exercise.  \nThe play, A Behanding in Spokane, has a typically bleak and violent McDonagh premise: An aging killer, played by Walken, is looking for a severed hand that he lost many years ago, then he meets a couple of con artists in a dingy hotel room who tell him they have the precious appendage.  \nSome reviewers have judged that McDonagh—whose other plays include The Lieutenant of Inishmore and The Pillowman and who also directed and wrote the hit film In Bruges, starring Colin Farrell—fails to understand the American psyche as well as he does that of his fellow Irishmen.“He seems to have lost his hitherto unerring sense of direction in the  \nbusy, open country of the United States,”wrote Ben Brantley in the New York Times. USA Today called it: “... hardly McDonagh’s most fully realized effort.”  \nThen there was the New Yorker. In an extraordinary and withering review, the magazine’s theater critic, Hilton Als, laid into the play for being overtly racist.“I don’t know a single self-respecting black actor who wouldn’t feel shame and fury while sitting through Martin McDonagh’s new play,” began Als’ review, which is probably one of the most negative pieces of theater criticism produced by the magazine in recent years.  \nAls, who is black, took umbrage at the play’s use of racist insults by Walken’s character, who is openly and proudly prejudiced.“A Behanding ... isn’t in the least palatable; it’s vile, particularly in its repeated use of the word ‘nigger,’” Als wrote. He then went on to compare the play’s lone black role, Toby—played by Anthony Mackie, the star of The Hurt Locker, to the racist caricatures of black Americans that populated American cinema in the 1920s and 1930s.“The caricature he [McDonagh] presents in  \nToby, the young black male, as a shucking, jiving thief can’t be excused,” he wrote, before lamenting that he believed that Mackie and other black actors have to take such roles in order to get higher-profile work.“The sad fact is that, in order to cross over, most black actors of Mackie’s generation must act black before they’re allowed to act human,” Als wrote.  \nAls appears to be the only major critic who reacted to the play’s racial themes so viscerally. Few other reviews paid its use of racist language much attention, instead focusing on Walken’s performance, which has been widely praised amid early whispers of Tony awards. But Als’ remarks certainly hit home with the play’s British producer, Robert Fox.“It was absolutely vindictive. Although Hilton Als’ comments are meaningless in the scheme of things, because the show is doing very well, I think his remarks were entirely inappropriate and irresponsible,” Fox told the Observer.  \nFox said he thought Als’ criticism was in itself an injection of racism where none was merited","cbCaipZj1MSsCe8s","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipZj1MSsCe8s","pdf",326398,1,"English","en",105,"# Broadway rocked by racism claims\n## 主要争议与批评\n## 观众与行业反应\n## 制片人与专家回应","[{\"question\":\"Hilton Als在《纽约客》如何评价《A Behanding in Spokane》？\",\"answer\":\"Hilton Als认为该剧使用露骨的种族侮辱，并对“唯一的黑人角色”进行批评，称观众会感到羞耻与愤怒。\"},{\"question\":\"争议聚焦的核心内容是什么？\",\"answer\":\"争议主要集中在剧中对种族相关侮辱性词汇的反复使用，以及将黑人角色描绘成特定刻板形象的做法。\"},{\"question\":\"制片人Robert Fox对Als的评论作何回应？\",\"answer\":\"Robert Fox认为Als的批评具有种族不容忍的属性，并认为评论在事件层面不恰当且不负责任，但同时也提到演出总体表现良好。\"}]","Broadway rocked by racism claims | PDF",1787559700,{"code":4,"msg":29,"data":30},"ok",{"site_id":23,"language":22,"slug":31,"title":13,"keywords":32,"description":14,"schema_data":33,"social_meta":84,"head_meta":86,"extra_data":88,"updated_unix":27},"broadway-rocked-by-racism-claims","",{"@graph":34,"@context":83},[35,51,66],{"@type":36,"itemListElement":37},"BreadcrumbList",[38,42,45,48],{"item":39,"name":40,"@type":41,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":43,"name":44,"@type":41,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",{"item":46,"name":12,"@type":41,"position":47},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/",3,{"item":49,"name":13,"@type":41,"position":50},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/broadway-rocked-by-racism-claims/139634/",4,{"url":49,"name":13,"@type":52,"author":53,"headline":13,"publisher":55,"fileFormat":58,"inLanguage":22,"description":14,"dateModified":59,"datePublished":60,"encodingFormat":58,"isAccessibleForFree":61,"interactionStatistic":62},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":54},"Person",{"url":39,"name":56,"@type":57},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-04","2026-08-24",true,{"@type":63,"interactionType":64,"userInteractionCount":11},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":65},"ViewAction",{"@type":67,"mainEntity":68},"FAQPage",[69,75,79],{"name":70,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":72},"Hilton Als在《纽约客》如何评价《A Behanding in Spokane》？","Question",{"text":73,"@type":74},"Hilton Als认为该剧使用露骨的种族侮辱，并对“唯一的黑人角色”进行批评，称观众会感到羞耻与愤怒。","Answer",{"name":76,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":77},"争议聚焦的核心内容是什么？",{"text":78,"@type":74},"争议主要集中在剧中对种族相关侮辱性词汇的反复使用，以及将黑人角色描绘成特定刻板形象的做法。",{"name":80,"@type":71,"acceptedAnswer":81},"制片人Robert Fox对Als的评论作何回应？",{"text":82,"@type":74},"Robert Fox认为Als的批评具有种族不容忍的属性，并认为评论在事件层面不恰当且不负责任，但同时也提到演出总体表现良好。","https://schema.org",{"og:url":49,"og:type":85,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":56,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":87,"canonical":49},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":23},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":90},[91,95,98,102,107,112,117,122,127,130,134],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":92,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":96,"slug":97},80,"literature",{"id":50,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":99,"show_sort_weight":100,"slug":101},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":103,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":104,"show_sort_weight":105,"slug":106},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":108,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":109,"show_sort_weight":110,"slug":111},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":113,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":114,"show_sort_weight":115,"slug":116},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":118,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":119,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":123,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":126},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":128,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":129},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":131,"slug":133},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":135,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":44,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":103,"slug":137},19,"General","general"]
