John Leguizamo Talks GHETTO KLOWN on WOR Radio, 3/2

John Leguizamo's GHETTO KLOWN has begun performances at Broadway's Lyceum Theatre (149 West 45th Street). Tomorrow, hear John when he's a guest on WOR Radio's Joan Hamburg Show between 10 AM - Noon. John is scheduled to be live at 10:30 AM; WOR is 770 AM.
GHETTO KLOWN opens on Tuesday, March 22nd and will play a 12-week engagement; it marks John's fifth one-man play and his third on Broadway. Academy Award winner Fisher Stevens makes his Broadway directorial debut with the show. Conceived and performed by Emmy and Obie Award winner John Leguizamo, GHETTO KLOWN is presented by Westbeth Entertainment, Daveed D. Frazier and Nelle Nugent.

GHETTO KLOWN is the next chapter in John Leguizamo's hugely popular personal and professional story. It follows in the unabashed, uncensored, and uninhibited tradition of his Mambo Mouth, Spic-O-Rama, Freak, and Sexaholix...a Love Story. In Leguizamo's trademark style, the piece explodes with energy, leading audiences on a fever-pitch adventure and heating up the stage with vivid accounts of where he's been and the colorful characters who have populated his life. Leguizamo takes audiences from his adolescent memories in Queens to the early days of his acting career during the outrageous 80s avant-garde theatre scene, and on to the sets of major motion pictures and his roles opposite some of Hollywood's biggest stars.

Leguizamo explains, "GHETTO KLOWN is all the things I say to my therapist and my manager, but would NEVER want the general public to know. It's cheaper than a lawsuit and I get to take a bow at the end. It's like Wikileaks but with no international manhunt. Yet."
