NEW YORK (AP) – During a recent interview in an empty midtown theater, James Lecesne is heckled – by his phone.
The writer and actor who co-founded The Trevor Project, a youth suicide prevention program, stirs in his seat and inadvertently launches Siri, the voice assistant on his smartphone.
“You are certainly entitled to that opinion,” Siri bleats from his back pocket.
“Wow, what’s her problem?” replies Lecesne, laughing. “What did I say?”
Actually, Lecesne is saying a lot these days. He’s starring in his own thoughtful one-man show “The Absolute Brightness of Leonard Pelkey” at the Westside Theatre.
