Ronnie Marmo...and Lenny Bruce?

Actor Ronnie Marmo joined Jim and Shelli live as he gears up to bring his show "I'm Not A Comedian...I'm Lenny Bruce" downtown to The Box Theatre of Variety on Chrystie St. Marmo completely embodies the legendary comedian and social critic Lenny Bruce in a show written by him and directed by the great Joe Mantegna. Ronnie is proud that his performance not only received great reviews but a full endorsement from Bruce's family. Then in between breaks something very strange happens...Jim and Shelli are visited by an apparition of Lenny Bruce himself! Bruce describes one of the main incidents that got him in hot water with authorities in the '60s and gives us a taste of some of his signature material. "I'm Not a Comedian...I'm Lenny Bruce" opens Fri 3/8 and runs Thursdays through Saturdays.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
