PERFORMANCE II

[14.16 - French Time] Golden Globe winner James Franco will return to ABC's venerable soap opera General Hospital next month.

When Franco guest starred last winter in GH on a short-term basis many commentators expressed their surprise. But the actor gave us his explanations in a Wall Street Journal article titled A Star, a Soap and the Meaning of Art, and subtitled Why an appearance on 'General Hospital' qualifies as performance art: his role in 20 episodes as « the bad-boy artist "Franco, just Franco" » was... performance art(http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704107104574570313372878136.html#printMode).

James Franco's first airdate in General Hospital is Wednesday, June 30.
