The coming-of-age comedy Napoleon Dynamite was a surprise hit in the summer of 2004.
Napoleon Dynamite Live!
7:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 18
Embassy Theatre
125 W. Jefferson Blvd., Fort Wayne
$25-$125 • (260) 424-6287
Now, 20 years and one day after it premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, it will be screened at Embassy Theatre with three cast members in attendance on Thursday, Jan. 18, at 7:30 p.m.
Watch the film that has maintained a loyal, cult audience throughout the years and stay to listen to discussion about the show as stars Jon Heder (Napoleon), Efren Ramirez (Pedro), and Jon Gries (Uncle Rico) take the stage.
Of course, you should dig out your “Vote for Pedro” shirt to wear that night, and maybe, just maybe, Gries will show off some of his football skills and share whether he thinks Uncle Rico believes he could still be a football star.
