THE STORY: John suffers through years of his parents’ fighting, and when they finally divorce, he moves in with his grandparents. Which is, it turns out, not the ideal escape he thought it would be, and soon he realizes he needs to get out of there, too. Hilariously following his sexual awakening and the trials of his love life, SEXAHOLIX… A LOVE STORY finds John searching for the right match, whether he knows what that is or not.
“What makes SEXAHOLIX so alive is its awareness of how everyone is a prisoner of that fallible, insistent organism known as the human body…Mr. Leguizamo isn’t about to let you examine him dispassionately.”—The New York Times.

“[Leguizamo’s] street-level philosophy on male-female relations and class-consciousness is pointedly hilarious and more relevant than anything postulated by an overeducated, undersexed sociologist. SEXAHOLIX... A LOVE STORY is exactly that: a love story, albeit a dysfunctional one. For all his unflattering anecdotes about neglectful relatives and wacky ex-lovers, John Leguizamo is really a mushy sentimentalist at heart.” —Salon.
