In a Facebook post on Tuesday, Actor Phillip Lazaro bid farewell to comedy bars Klownz located along Quezon Avenue, Quezon City and Zirkoh at Tomas Morato, Quezon City.

“Sa aking mga kasama at kapatid sa Klownz at Zirkoh, let us all say a little prayer for one another and hug each other in our hearts. Sa aming mga napatawa at napasaya sa mga lumipas na taon, the pleasure was definitely ours,” Lazaro said.

(To my friends at Klowns and Zirkoh, let us all say a little prayer for one another and hug each other in our hearts. To all those who laughed at our jokes and were happy at our performances in the past years, the pleasure was definitely ours.)
