An Evening With Billy Van Zandt 

On Saturday November 16 the Brookdale Performing Arts Center will present “An Evening with Billy Van Zandt,” as the internationally known playwright/actor launches his new memoir “Because It’s Funny (the Plays of Billy Van Zandt & Jane Milmore)” - a sequel of sorts to his best-selling book “Get in the Car, Jane (Adventures in the TV Wasteland)”. 

The evening, hosted by actor Jeff Babey, will benefit the Brookdale Performing Arts Center, as Billy and Jeff discuss the 25 internationally produced plays he and Jane wrote throughout their 45 years together.   Their works have been produced in thousands of theaters worldwide and directed by the likes of Oscar winner Olympia Dukakis, and film icon Burt Reynolds, and have starred such actors as Adrienne Barbeau, Eva Longoria, Rose Marie, Barney Martin, Wesley Eure, Craig Bierko, and Donny Most, and of course the Unofficial Van Zandt/Milmore Repertory Company . 

Tickets for the event are $25+Fees, with all proceeds benefiting the Brookdale Performing Arts Center.  There also will be books on hand to purchase at the event that will be signed by the author after the show.
