Tony Clifton is one of the most enigmatic, outrageous and disturbing comedians on the face of the earth. Discovered by Andy Kaufman, Tony entertained, offended and startled millions.

After Andy's death, Tony mysteriously continues to appear. Jim Carrey played him in the remarkable Andy Kaufman film MAN ON THE MOON.

When the documentary based on that movie, "Jim and Andy: The Great Beyond Featuring a Special Contractually Obligated Appearance by Tony Clifton" played at the Toronto Film Festival this past September, Clifton caused a sensation. The movie got SNAPPED up by Netflix. Tony is a producer and is in about 40 percent of the movie. Without Tony Clifton, the movie couldn't have been made. The movie opens on Netflix November 17.

Tony is coming to Broadway and playing the Iridium for two nights next week: October 31 and November 1. Tickets here: www.ticketweb.com/event/tony-clifton-on-broadway-iridium-tickets/7642945. On Halloween and the Day of the Dead, two days that blur the lines between fantasy and reality, documentary and feature, Tony is your man.
