Back at The GRAMMY Museum by popular demand on Thursday, August 15, 2013 at 8:00pm, the live comedy show CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY: The Music Edition. In the museum's 200-seat Clive Davis Theater, audiences will experience a variety of jaw-dropping vignettes inspired and torn straight from the pages of the most unforgettable music-themed tell-alls and more.

As seen on Bravo TV, CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY is the international smash-hit comedy where outrageous and true celebrity memoirs are acted out live on-stage by some of the funniest people in entertainment. For this special installment, self-penned writings from artists ranging from Motley Crue to Beyonce, Justin Bieber to Britney Spears will be acted out by a first rate line up performers including Joey Fatone, Lainie Kazan, Melissa Manchester, Laraine Newman, Eugene Pack, Dayle Reyfel, Fred Willard, Rita Wilson and more to be announced. The evening will feature the show's signature "Celebrity Mash-Ups" where dueling memoirs are performed on stage by the entire cast.

Originally created by Emmy-Award nominated writer-performer Eugene Pack and developed by Pack and Dayle Reyfel, Celebrity Autobiography has been profiled in virtually every major media outlet including CBS Sunday Morning, CNN, NPR's All Things Considered and The View. The national and international tours of the show garnered rave reviews across the board- from The New York Times to Rolling Stone to Time Magazine.

Playing to sell-out audiences and rave reviews in New York City since fall 2008, CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY is one of the most critically acclaimed, "buzzed about shows" of recent years, according to Entertainment Weekly. Performers in the show have included Ryan Reynolds, Kristen Wiig, Sherri Shepherd, Brooke Shields, Rachel Dratch, Matthew Broderick, Jennifer Coolidge, Jason Sudeikis, Paul Rudd and Martin Short.

CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY has toured internationally with acclaimed performances in Los Angeles, D.C., Alaska, Atlanta, Miami, Louisville, Charlotte, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, San Francisco, Chicago, Arizona, Austin, and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, the Sydney Opera House and London's West End.
