You Can Watch “Blazing Saddles” and See Mel Brooks Live!

The legendary, iconic comic  genius Mel Brooks is making an appearance at Proctors, with a copy of the classic "Blazing Saddles" under his arm.   I'm writing this less as a commercial and more as a historical cinematic event for the Capital Region, cuz it is!

Come on, people.  It's Mel Brooks in the flesh, for God Sakes.  How many times will you be able to see him?  From what I understand, Schenectady is only one of 4 cities where he's trying this show out. (Well, the guy is almost 90.  How many appearances can you expect?)   So here's the deal, from what I understand.  You get to see the hilarious, and quite politically incorrect Blazing Saddles , and then experience a "live conversation" with Mel.

I can't even imagine how awesome this will be to experience. And of course, he's famous for a many more classic comedies than this one!  Here's a list of them via Wikipedia.  What a genius (there - I said it again)
