"The Performers takes place on the night of the major awards for the Porn industry and I was the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award. My character's name was Chuck Wood. We lasted seven nights plus previews on Broadway. Hurricane Sandy blasted through the New York area shutting the city and Broadway down." - Henry Winkler
