The Haugh Performing Arts Center in Glendora is thrilled to present the most hilarious Valentine's Day date of the year, CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY: VALENTINE'S DAY EDITION performed by Scott Adsit, Roger Bart, Mindy Cohn, Micky Dolenz, Jennifer Tilly and creators Eugene Pack & Dayle Reyfel tonight, February 14 at 8:00pm (Doors open at 7:30pm) at the Haugh Performing Arts Center, 1000 W.

How does Vanna flip her panels? What does Stallone have in his freezer? Why did Burt and Loni topple from the upper tier of their wedding cake? What makes the Jonas Brothers get along? Find all this out and more in the new hit comedy "Celebrity Autobiography" where super star memoirs are acted out live on stage. Audiences walk away from the show asking, "Did they actually write that?" Yes, we couldn't make this stuff up!
Created and developed by Emmy award nominated writer-performer Eugene Pack and Dayle Reyfel, "Celebrity Autobiography" features a first rate comedic ensemble performing from the actual memoirs of a wide range of celebrities. The passages run the gamut from the "poetry" of Suzanne Somers to the shocking "romance tips" from Tommy Lee to the most famous Hollywood love triangle in history - Elizabeth Taylor, Debbie Reynolds, and Eddie Fisher. And what's remarkable and unforgettably hilarious - It's all in their own words.
Running for three sold out years in New York; "Celebrity Autobiography" won the 2009 Drama Desk Award in the category of Unique Theatrical Experience and the 2010 Bistro Awards. The show has been one of the most critically acclaimed productions ever in the Off-Broadway scene and one of the most "buzzed about shows" of recent years.
