The Island Today: Jennifer Tilly in comedy at Landmark

Grace McQuade

Academy Award-nominated actress for “Bullets Over Broadway” and “World Series of Poker” champ Jennifer Tilly will add to the comedic action when Celebrity Autobiography Live! performs at Landmark on Main on Saturday, March 4 at 8 p.m.

She joins veteran actress and stand-up comedian Janeane Garofalo, actor Ralph Macchio (“Karate Kid” and “My Cousin Vinny”) and Mario Cantone (“Sex in the City”), to headline an all-star cast for what the New York Post calls the “Funniest Show in Town, Hands down!”

Celebrity Autobiography Live! is the international smash hit comedy where wild, hilarious and true celebrity memoirs are given the full dramatic–and comedic–treatment by some of the sharpest celebrity performers in town.

As seen on Bravo TV, audiences will enjoy a night of non-stop laughter as they experience the jaw-dropping vignettes performed from celebrity tell-alls: from How Vanna White flips her panels, how Tiger Woods strokes his putter, Mr. T’s acting tips, to a “He Said, She Said” account by the most famous love triangle in Hollywood history–Elizabeth Taylor, Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher.

Other major “tell-alls” featured in Celebrity Autobiography Live! include the words of Beyonce, Miley Cyrus, the Kardashians, Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Diana Ross, Dolly Parton, Ricky Martin, Madonna, Britney Spears and One Direction.

The stars’ personal stories are given hilarious interpretation by celebrity performers.

Just announced for this engagement: Ralph Macchio will be acting out the memoirs of Justin Bieber and David Hasselhoff… among others.

And expect to see Janeane Garofalo as Kris Jenner Kardashian, Melissa Gilbert and many more.

Running for eight sold-out years in New York City, Celebrity Autobiography Live! won the Drama Desk Award for Unique Theatrical Experience and is one of the most critically acclaimed, most “buzzed about shows” of recent years (Entertainment Weekly).

Created by Emmy Award-nominated writer-performer Eugene Pack and Dayle Reyfel (also cast members), Celebrity Autobiography Live! has also been profiled in virtually every major media outlet including “Nightline,” “CBS Sunday Morning,” CNN, NPR’s “All Things Considered” and “The View.”

The show was the toast of the Edinburgh Festival, London’s West End and Australia’s Sydney Opera House.

It has garnered rave reviews across the board–from The New York Times (A Critics’ Pick) to Rolling Stone to Time magazine.

Audiences will leave the show asking, “Did these celebrities really write that?”

The answer is: You could not make this stuff up!
