Napoleon Dynamite, 20th Anniversary Live Read, San Francisco, CA
SF Sketchfest: The San Francisco Comedy Festival will feature three weeks of nonstop live sketch, improv, stand-up, podcasts, reunions, and more!
Twenty years ago, a small indie film named “Napoleon Dynamite” became a cinematic and comic phenomenon that shook pop culture. Written by Jared and Jerusha Hess, directed by Jared Hess, and featuring a wonderful cast of characters lead by Jon Heder, the film was a smash hit, with many of us wearing ubiquitous “Vote for Pedro” buttons. SF Sketchfest is pleased to present a 20th Anniversary table read of the film, starring Jon Heder, Efren Ramirez, Jon Gries, Tina Majorino, Diedrich Bader, and guest cast Nyima Funk, Mindy Sterling, Janet Varney, and Gary Anthony Williams. Cosplay is encouraged!
