Pee-Wee Hits The Road Once More
What do you get when you cross the left-field vision of Tim Burton with the impish, bow tie-wearing pop culture icon Pee-Wee Herman? Why the ultimate off-kilter road movie of course! Celebrating the 35th anniversary of Pee-Wee Herman's Big Adventure, the character's creator and celebrated comedian Paul Reubens brings his alter ego back into the spotlight during a series of special screenings and discussions this winter.
Released in 1985, the cult hit feature capitalised on a stage act turned HBO special in 1981. Two TV series quickly followed and immortalised Reubens' memorable alter ego. A surprise hit, the film proved an endlessly quotable family movie filled with grown-up moments and one-liners, all hitting home thanks to the sharply dressed man-child at the story's center. Don't miss this chance peer inside Reubens' mind during an audience Q&A after watching the film.
