John said about his show “Ghetto Klown is a history that I probably never should have told anyone but my therapist, but it’s a real lesson that even if you suffer a certain amount (a lot) of self-doubt and anxiety, you can still accomplish great things. It’s a lesson I’m really excited to impart to a whole new audience.”

“I call it the haiku factor,” says Leguizamo. “The shorter you can get things, the more economical you can make it–either verbally, visually, or emotionally–the tighter, the more condensed. There’s beauty in that. That’s why it took me eight years to whittle things down and find the important beats.”
