Cult actor/filmmaker/artist Crispin Glover will present his "Big Slide Show",
show his film What Is It? and entertain Questions as well as sign autographs.

Do you want to know that most all of the actors in the film have Down syndrome?
Do you want to know the description of the film?
            "Being the adventures of a young man whose principle interests are
            snails, salt, a pipe, and how to get home. As tormented by an
            hubristic, racist inner psyche."


This is a unique opportunity that should not be missed. It will surely entertain, invoke, educate and confuse (i.e. probably not good for a first date!).   BTW Fairuza Balk is the voice of one of the snails!

You remember Crispin Glover from Back to the Future, River's Edge, and maybe even Willard or Charlie's Angels (the feature length movie from 2000).
Maybe you have one of his books?  (he takes old books and re-appropriates them into his own creations by artfully crossing out much of the text and adding his own imagery)

Did you solve the "Big Problem" by coming up with the title for his album?
It included versions of Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots are made for Walking" and Charles Manson's "Always is Always" as well as several other songs (with musical help from Barnes and Barnes) and readings from his books.
