"Grandiloquent is the show I got into comedy to do,鈥� said Gulman in a statement. 鈥淚t鈥檚 the culmination of 48 years of my reading and writing and performing. I am so grateful to be able to bring it to the venerable Lucille Lortel Theatre, where I鈥檝e seen so much extraordinary work."
The new show, press notes state, concerns "insecurity, empathy, self-acceptance and how a thoughtful boy learned to use humor, reading, and writing to cope with the consequences of his parents鈥� blunders."
