=== Other work === Outside of film, Radner continued to work in different mediums. In 1981, Radner began appearing, with [[Sam Waterston]] in the [[Jean Kerr]] play ''Lunch Hour''. They played two people whose spouses are having an affair, and who, in retaliation, begin an affair of their own consisting of lunch-hour trysts.<ref>{{cite book |author=Hischak |first=Thomas S. |title=American Theatre: A Chronicle of Comedy and Drama, 1969β2000 |publisher=Oxford University Press |year=2001 |isbn=978-0-19-512347-0 |pages=176 |language=en}}</ref> The show ran for more than seven months, playing in various US theaters, including the [[John F.
