Guts: An Evening with Kristen Johnston  (4313)

09/26/2012 7:00 PM - 09/26/2012 9:30 PM

Emmy Award winning actress Kristen Johnston (Third Rock From the Sun, Ugly Betty, Sex and The City) reads from Guts: The Endless Follies and Tiny Triumphs of a Giant Disaster. Hilarious and heartfelt, this gutsy new memoir catalogs the star's recovery
from a near fatal addiction to alcohol and prescription drugs. "It felt like I was speeding on the Autobahn toward hell, trapped inside a DeLorean with no brakes. And even if I could somehow stop, I'd still be screwed, because there's no way I'd ever be able
to figure out how to open those insane, cocaine-designed doors." – Kristen Johnston For the first time ever, right here in Traverse City, the comedic actress turned author will be performing selected readings from her book in this exclusive, one-time event.
Also featuring a powerful spoken word performance from Kinetic Affect, this is sure to be an inspirational evening of hope and laughter you won't want to miss! Audience Q and A and book signing to follow.
