The City of Chicago announced that (September 5th) Tuesday’s screening of the rock comedy classic ‘Wayne’s World’ at Jay Pritzker Pavilion (201 E. Randolph St.) inside Millennium Park will have a special guest, the rock legend in the film that Wayne and Garth have a special moment with, Alice Cooper. Yeah, that Alice Cooper will give a special introduction before the movie and have a ‘cameo performance’ at 6:30pm shortly before the movie starts in the state-of-the-art open-air pavilion. The screening is free and it will close out the city’s summer movie series. Working downtown, I suggest if you want to make it out for this special event you should get there at least before 6pm for a decent spot.
‘Wayne’s World’ started as a reoccurring sketch on SNL in the late 80’s and early 90’s before making the jump to the big screen in a surprise blockbuster hit in 1992, directed by Penelope Spears. People in the fictional home of Wayne Cambell Aurora, this past summer through a series of events celebrating the movie including breaking the world record of headbanging.
