Mesa Arts Center Presents CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY, 11/4-21

By:

How does Vanna flip her panels? What does Stallone have in his freezer? How does 'Mr. T' prepare for his "acting" roles? Why did Burt and Loni topple from the upper tier of their wedding cake? What makes the Jonas Brothers get along? Whether you actually care to know the "truth" about celebrities, Celebrity Autobiography will answer these questions, with the help of an all-star cast as they recite the memoirs of these pop culture icons.  
 
The New York hit comedy show and winner of the 2009 Drama Desk Award for Best Unique Theatrical Experience is coming to Mesa. This three week engagement will feature a line-up of revolving comedians who perform and interpret the unintentionally hilarious actual words and stories written by celebrities. Audiences walk away from the show asking, "Did they actually write that?"
                                                                                                                                      
                            
The comedic line-up includes Maggie Wheeler, Laraine Newman, Bruce Vilanch, Maggie Wheeler, Eugene Pack, Dayle Reyfel, and Tony Bingham.
