I loved talking with @RealRichardKind Wonderful actor and so clever. He performs @AtlantaSymphony Hall July 19

[WABE News @wabenews]

Beloved character actor Richard Kind has compared his career to a river – ebbing and flowing.

To make his case, Kind will appear live on stage at Atlanta Symphony Hall on July 19 for “How Not to Be Famous: A Conversation with Richard Kind.”

Kind joined “City Lights” host @LoisReitzes to discuss his acting career.

[Lewis Black @TheLewisBlack]

One of my favorite pics of Sam Black. He was a gifted artist. He was a man of principle. He had a wonderfully impish smile. And he only spoke if he had a reason. He was a great father. And I am lucky he was my Dad.

Bravo @joshgad ! Will it be “Spaceballs the Musical?”

[Josh Gad @joshgad]

I was that child who saw “Spaceballs” before I ever saw “Star Wars” and then wondered why anyone would do a dramatic remake of the Mel Brooks classic. It is therefore the greatest gift of my life to now help take the reins and work alongside Mel and this incredible group to do a sequel to the movie that first inspired George Lucas.

And @StevenIsserlis is among the finest interpreters of Schumann’s music

[Steven Isserlis @StevenIsserlis]

Robert Schumann b otd 1810! A unique genius, who was steeped in music's past, but sent it hurtling into the future; whose works combine an extraordinary intellect with glorious freedom; and whose perfect art speaks straight to - and from - the heart. Truly the soul of creativity.

@JayPharoah has wisdom to match his wit. A very funny man.

This weekend, my play THE WASH, which is a comedic drama inspired by the Atlanta Washerwomen's Strike of 1881, opened in St. Louis and ATL. Audiences showed up in the wind and rain. In STL, they had to hold the show for a tornado and no one left. THANK YOU to the audiences!
