John Leguizamo

Cedric the Entertainer is not amused.

His play, David Mamet's American Buffalo co-starring John Leguizamo and Haley Joel Osment, opened on November 17th and closed just eight performances later, earning it the dubious honor of being one of the shortest running plays ever on Broadway.

But Cedric insists it wasn’t the acting, direction or actual play that’s to blame…it was one critic’s review.

This isn’t going to do much to help him clamor out of the past-his-prime-child-actor box.

Haley Joel Osment’s run on Broadway in David Mamet’s American Buffalo alongside John Leguizamo and Cedric the Entertainer is heading for the record books… as one of the shortest plays ever to run on the Great White Way.

After less than a week, the show is set to close on Sunday unless ticket sales dramatically improve. Ouch.

Child stars have a new way of announcing to the world that they are now men: they star on Broadway.

Haley Joel Osment, now 20, the star of The Sixth Sense who has largely disappeared from the public eye ever since his voice changed halfway through filming Secondhand Lions, is making his Broadway debut in David Mamet’s American Buffalo.

Unlike Harry Potter’s Daniel Radcliffe, Osment is expected to remain fully clothed.
