Arturo's Window
A True New York Story
John Jerome, corporate party planner, does good deeds - embezzles $4 million!!!
Goes to prison, gets out, wants to tell his story, for a book.
Gay Robin Hood? White collar criminal?
King of Cabaret?
Who knows? He never gave an interview.
Until now.
Seven actors. One singer. One pianist.
Nine original songs.
One amazing journey.
