Wayne’s World in Millennium Park and Alice Cooper?! EXCELLENT!

The City of Chicago announced that (September 5th) Tuesday’s screening of the rock comedy classic ‘Wayne’s World’ at Jay Pritzker Pavilion (201 E. Randolph St.) inside Millennium Park will have a special guest, the rock legend in the film that Wayne and Garth have a special moment with, Alice Cooper. Yeah, that Alice Cooper will give a special introduction before the movie and have a ‘cameo performance’ at 6:30pm shortly before the movie starts in the state-of-the-art open-air pavilion. The screening is free and it will close out the city’s summer movie series. Working downtown, I suggest if you want to make it out for this special event you should get there at least before 6pm for a decent spot.

‘Wayne’s World’ started as a reoccurring sketch on SNL in the late 80’s and early 90’s before making the jump to the big screen in a surprise blockbuster hit in 1992, directed by Penelope Spears. People in the fictional home of Wayne Cambell  Aurora,  this past summer through a series of events celebrating the movie including breaking the world record of headbanging.

Check out Wayne and  Garth (Mike Myers & Dana Carvey) run down a top 10 on the Saturday Night Live 40th Anniversary Special.
