I purchased 2 tickets to Crispin Glover’s show in Atlanta, which is the closest location to South Florida on his tour schedule. I of course will be in my Marty McFly costume. After his show he does a Q&A and a book signing and will sign autographs even if you do not buy his book. From what i heard Crispin Glover is a genuinely nice and open guy.
Description of Crispin Glover’s Show
The evening starts with Crispin Hellion Glover’s Big Slide Show, an hour-long dramatic presentation in which the actor narrates images from eight of his illustrated story books. The feature film WHAT IS IT. screens next, followed by a Q&A; answer period moderated by Crispin Glover himself, who will then sign books (for sale in the lobby) after the Q&A session.
WHAT IS IT
Known for creating many memorable, incredibly quirky characters onscreen as an actor, Glover’s first effort as a director will not disappoint fans of his offbeat sensibilities and eccentric taste. Featuring a cast largely comprised of actors with Down’s Syndrome, the film is not about Down’s Syndrome. Glover describes it as “Being the adventures of a young man whose principal interests are snails, salt, a pipe and how to get home as tormented by an hubristic racist inner psyche.” In addition to writing and directing WHAT IS IT?, Glover also appears in the film as an actor in the role of “Dueling Demi-God Auteur and The young man’s inner psyche.” Actress Fairuza Balk voices one of the snails.
NOTE: No-one under 18 years old will be admitted.
