Bruce Vilanch Book Signing

Stonewall Hosts Bruce Vilanch for a Special Reading and Book Signing Event!

We are delighted to announce that Stonewall will be hosting the renowned writer and comedian Bruce Vilanch for a special reading and signing of his new book, It Seemed Like a Bad Idea at the Time.
 
It Seemed Like a Bad Idea at the Time is a lifetime reflection of what Vilanch has experienced, learned, forgotten, dismissed, and embraced in decades of working in show business, specifically the south forty acres known as comedy. It involves very famous people and people who were not very famous but should have been.
 
And it explains to the person in the audience who says to himself, once he has gotten his jaw off the floor, “‘How did this ever get made?”
