Robin Williams is taking his one-man show to Broadway.

The comedian and actor's Weapons Of Self-Destruction show will on at the Neil Simon Theatre in New York for five performances this spring.

The star has been on an 80-city tour of the States with the show.

Robin - whose movie credits include One Hour Photo and Night At The Museum - said: "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."

Robin's show will be on Broadway from April 28 until May 3.
