GHETTO KLOWN Recoups on Broadway

Producers of John Leguizamo's Broadway show GHETTO KLOWN which closed yesterday, announced that the show has recouped its capitalization. Directed by Fisher Stevens, GHETTO KLOWN will play other US cities this fall and winter (dates and cities tba); in 2012 it will travel to South America and Leguizamo will perform the show in Spanish.

GHETTO KLOWN is the next chapter in John Leguizamo's popular personal and professional story. It is his fifth one man play, his third on Broadway, and follows in the 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, heating up the stage with vivid accounts of the colorful characters who have populated his life. He takes audiences from his adolescent memories in Queens to the early days of his acting career and on to the sets of major motion pictures and his roles opposite some of Hollywood's biggest stars.

Conceived and performed by Emmy and Obie Award winner John Leguizamo and directed by Academy Award winner Fisher Stevens, GHETTO KLOWN is presented by Westbeth Entertainment, Daveed D. Frazier and Nelle Nugent.
