What do John Hughes, Chevy Chase, and Conan O'Brien have in common? If you answered that they've all made you pee in your pants at some point in your life, you're getting warm. All three started their comedic careers at the Harvard Lampoon, and its spin-off, the National Lampoon Magazine. Drunk, Stoned, Brilliant, Dead: A Tribute to the National Lampoon dives into this historic and iconic publication and its stage show that saw the likes of John Belushi, Gilda Radner, and Bill Murray, and many of their contributors, rise to fame on Saturday Night Live, The Simpsons, and other shows and films. Tonight's talk with original Lampoonalums includes artist Rick Meyerowitz, writer Danny Abelson, the Lampoon's "poet laureate" Sean Kelly, cartoonist Arnold Roth, and former Lampooneditor Mike Reiss, who will serve as the moderator.
