Variety Nights > I’m Not A Comedian… I’m Lenny Bruce

Directed by Joe Mantegna

I’m Not A Comedian… I’m Lenny Bruce

March 8th, 2027 at 7:30 PM
March 9th, 2027 at 2 PM & 7:30 PM

Rated R: Explicit Language, Mature Content & Brief Nudity

I'M NOT A COMEDIAN.. I'M LENNY BRUCE chronicles the life and death of the most controversial comedian and undisputed legend of all time...Lenny Bruce. His personal pain, sharply funny social commentary and completely original, freestyle comedy left a lasting impact on today's poetry, politics, music, film - and of course - comedy. His unwavering commitment to, and passion for, free speech led to numerous obscenity charges and arrests. Bruce fought for freedom of speech all the way to the Supreme Court, and died of an accidental overdose in 1966 while out on appeal. Lauded by fans and former friends of Bruce, Marmo's crowd-shocking portrayal brings the notorious funnyman to life with all the electrifying, insightful and comedic brilliance as the one and only Lenny Bruce himself.

Directed by Joe Mantegna, starring critically-acclaimed actor Ronnie Marmo, with the blessings of Kitty Bruce (daughter of the late Lenny Bruce), along with the Lenny Bruce Foundation. Rated R: Explicit language, Mature Content & Very Brief Nudity
