The Van Wezel Presents CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY With Ziemba, et al. 1/11

How does Vanna flip her panels? What does Stallone have in his freezer? What makes the Jonas Brothers get along? Find all this out and more from the new hit comedy CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY at the Van Wezel on Tuesday, January 11 at 7 or 9 p.m.

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 love triangle in history-Elizabeth Taylor, Debbie Reynolds, and Eddie Fisher. And what's remarkable and 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 a 2010 Bistro Award for Comedy Series. The show has been one of the most critically acclaimed productions ever in the Off-Broadway scene. A Critics Pick of The New York Times CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY is "a cool night out"-Rolling Stone Magazine. The New York Post calls it "The funniest show in town, hands down," and Variety says it's "Awesome and Hilarious."

Each performance of CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY is unique, bringing different performers to each city. Some of the stars of the Van Wezel's CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY will be: The Second City's Tom Booker, SNL's Rachel Dratch, Broadway, movie and television actress Annie Golden, Michael McGlone-The Brothers McMullen, CRASH, The Kill Point, CELEBRITY AUTOBIOGRAPHY creators Eugene Pack and Dayle Reyfel, Sarasota's own Jerry Springer, and Tony award winner Karen Ziemba!
