A Very Special Evening with Jon Heder, Jon Gries & Efren Ramirez
Event is BYOT (Bring Your Own Tots)
The beloved indie classic, Napoleon Dynamite, was released 20 years ago. Since then, much has changed; but the characters, as enduring as they are endearing, stay in our hearts. Appealing to the inner-teenager in each of us, the story, and more importantly the dialogue, makes Napoleon Dynamite one of the most quoted movies of our time. Napoleon Dynamite makes us laugh-and laugh hard- over and over again. This unique evening includes a full screening of Napoleon Dynamite followed by a lively, freewheeling, interactive experience, with fan-favorite cast members; Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite), Jon Gries (Uncle Rico) and Efren Ramirez (Pedro). The live show--perfect for the whole family--is a wild and hysterical blend of Q&A, comedy improv, game show, and party, with plenty of audience participation. Come join the fun and help celebrate this wonderful movie classic.
