SERIOUSLY FUNNY: AN IN PERSON TRIBUTE TO MICHAEL KEATON
Fri, May 13, 2011 - Sun, May 15, 2011

After an initial foray into standup comedy and sitcoms, Michael Keaton quickly became a big-screen star in comic gems like NIGHT SHIFT and MR. MOM in the early 1980s. It was 1988, however, when the world really appreciated his gifts in two very different roles: as an addict trying to go straight in the drama CLEAN AND SOBER, and as a mischievous ghost in Tim Burton's outrageous supernatural comedy BEETLEJUICE. Michael Keaton will appear in person for a double feature of BEETLEJUICE and MULTIPLICITY.
