Michael McKean at Cal Performances April 15
Cal Performances at the University of California, Berkeley presents An Evening with Michael McKean: Reality at Arm's Length as part of the "Strictly Speaking" series. The event takes place Sunday, April 15 at 7PM in Zellerbach Hall A. Tickets are $20, $28, and $38.
"Actor, comedian, composer, and musician Michael McKean first achieved fame as the tall half of Laverne & Shirley's geeky duo, Lenny and Squiggy, and went on to comic immortality as David St. Hubbins, the spiky-haired lead singer of the fictional British hard rock band Spinal Tap, the demise of which is assiduously chronicled in Rob Reiner's 1984 cult mockumentary This is Spinal Tap," states press notes, "Add memorable turns in films like Best in Show and A Mighty Wind, and Broadway successes in Hairspray and the current hit revival of The Pajama Game (with Harry Connick, Jr.), and you have the stuff of legends."
McKean's talk at Cal Performances "shall be contrasting the truth (inherent in well improvised fiction) with the obvious lies of 'reality programming' and how the actual world can be rescued from the pimps and carpetbaggers of the Third Millenium."
