Party time! Excellent! WAYNE’S WORLD Midnights This Weekend at The Tivoli

By  | 

WAYNE’S WORLD plays midnights this weekend (April 29th and 21st ) at the Tivoli Theater (6350 Delmar Boulevard) as part of their Reel Late at the Tivoli Midnight series.

In 1992, Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar hit the big screen for the first time, and, as film critic Desson Howe wrote in The Washington Post, the result was “schweeeet.” The world already knew Wayne, played by Mike Myers, and Garth, played by Dana Carvey, from their regular “Saturday Night Live” sketch about two heavy-metal-loving men-children with bad hair who host a public access show from Wayne’s wood-paneled basement in Aurora, Ill. “Maybe you have to be puerile, young-hearted and susceptible to jokes about — there’s no other way to put this — sphincters. Well, ‘Wayne’s World’-the-movie is a Roto-Rooter for clogged humor. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll drive home,” Howe noted. The film — which had everyone on their knees, bowing and saying, “We’re not worthy” — made almost $122 million in gross domestic sales. (The 1993 sequel did not do as well, taking in $48 million.)

Now you’ll have the chance to see WAYNE’S WORLD again on the big screen when it plays this weekend midnights ar The Tivoli!
