Opening of Broadway Play "American Buffalo"

First scoop on Broadway Debut...











The OPENING of the Broadway Play "American Buffalo" took place last night at the Belasco Theatre on W. 44th Street in NYC. The turnout was amazing, everyone in theatre attended! Spike Lee, J. Anthony (comedian), and Cedric the Entertainer's Manager were a few faces I recognized in the crowd. Theatre gurus were the lare majority. The headliners of the play were Cedric the Entertainer, John Leguizamo, and Haley Joel Osment. Who else do you need?! Cedric the Entertainer made his Broadway debut and in my opinion, stole the show!

Quick preview:
The set of the play takes place in a Chicago pawnshop, where the trio of small-town crooks run a coin scam in hopes of hitting the jackpot. When money is low, friendships are tested. The play has a sort of dark humor mixed with a seriousness that is funny, sad and harsh all in the same breath. It's worth going to see, even if it's just to see Cedric the Entertainer for the 1st time on Broadway.

Should you go check it out? Absolutely!
