Robin Williams heading to Broadway.

NEW YORK- February 27, 2009

First Will Ferrell.

Now Robin Williams is coming to Broadway this season.

The comedian says he will perform his one-man show, "Weapons of Self-Destruction," for five performances at the Neil Simon Theatre, April 28 through May 3.

That's the most time he's spending in any city on this tour.

Williams has been on an 80-city tour of the show.

The comedian says: "The current state of the country's political and economic climate, while so hard on so many people, has been like gold for a comedian. There's just so much that's ripe for the picking."
