Description
Lights, camera, Broadway! Win this item and you and a guest will fly first class from San Francisco to New York City and enjoy a private dinner with award-winning actor, writer, director, and cultural icon John Cameron Mitchell. Mitchell is an Obie Award– and Drama Desk–winning Broadway actor (Secret Garden, Six Degrees of Separation, The Normal Heart). He won the Sundance Director Award for his direction of the movie version of Hedwig and the Angry Inch. He currently writes and directs full-time (Nurse Jackie); recently finished the Showtime pilot Trending Down, starring the late Philip Seymour Hoffman; and appeared in two seasons of the popular HBO series Girls after Lena Dunham personally coaxed him out of acting "retirement." Join Mitchell and his close friend and Nueva mom Grace Kahng at his favorite hangout in Koreatown in New York City. Discuss this Obie- and Sundance Award–winning writer and director's decision to turn down the lead role in the hit RENT in order to finish writing the Broadway musical version of Hedwig and the Angry Inch, opening this spring and starring Neil Patrick Harris. Hear entertaining anecdotes about his direction of Nicole Kidman in the film adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize winning play The Rabbit Hole (and Grace’s cameo in the film as Nicole Kidman's pedicurist).You can also ask him about Hedwig The Sequel, his recently completed new work. In addition to a private dinner, the lucky winners will head to a night at the Belasco Theatre to watch Michael Mayer's direction of Hedwig and the Angry Inch from the best seats in the house.
This show-stopping package includes: two first class Virgin America roundtrip tickets to New York City from San Francisco, two nights at Le Parker Meridian, dinner in Koreatown with John Cameron Mitchell and Grace Kahng, and two VIP seats to Hedwig and the Angry Inch. This experience must be scheduled at least two months in advance.
