(NEWARK, NJ) -- Join New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC) for an unforgettable evening of holiday cheer and laughs on Friday, December 15, 2023 at 8:00pm. They will be presenting a special screening of National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation followed by a live conversation with none other than “Clark Griswold” himself.
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation was released in 1989 and instantly became a holiday classic. The film, written by John Hughes and directed by Jeremiah S. Chechik, tells the story of what happens when Clark Griswold fails to get the Christmas bonus he was planning on receiving while dealing with a house full of relatives. In addition to Chevy Chase, the cast includes Beverly D'Angelo and Randy Quaid.
Chevy Chase and his wife Jayni share behind-the-scenes anecdotes about the making of the movie, and answer your questions about Chevy’s storied career, including SNL and Caddyshack. A limited number of VIP tickets will be available to take photos after the show. So grab your ugly holiday sweater and refill your eggnog, because “nobody’s walking out on this fun, old-fashioned family Christmas!”
Tickets go on-sale Friday, June 16 at 10:00am and can be purchased by visiting NJPAC.org or calling 888.GO.NJPAC (888.466.5722) or by visiting the NJPAC Box Office.
