From a press release:

Light up your holidays and join Christmas’ favorite couple, Ellen and Clark Griswold, for a virtual salute to the holiday classic “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” on Saturday, Nov. 28.

The F.M. Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre announced today that Chevy Chase (Clark) and Beverly D’Angelo (Ellen) will lead audiences through a special live event, sharing fan-favorite clips from the movie, revealing their favorite memories from the making of the “Vacation” franchise, and answer questions in a live audience Q&A.

Tickets, which are $25 per household (includes one device with as many viewers as you’d like) or $150 for the VIP Experience (includes the opportunity to engage in a one-minute one-on-one video chat with Chase and D’Angelo), are on sale now via Passport Interactive and kirbycenter.org.

An original member of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live,” Chevy Chase was the trailblazer who turned “SNL” success into Hollywood mega-stardom. The movies “Caddyshack,” “National Lampoon’s Vacation,” “Fletch,” and “Three Amigos” all contributed to making Chevy Chase a worldwide household name.

Perhaps best known for her portrayal of Ellen Griswold in the “National Lampoon’s Vacation” franchise, actress and singer Beverly D’Angelo has had an accomplished career spanning over four decades. Her acting resume includes roles in over 60 films and appearances in some of pop culture’s most celebrated television series, including “The Simpsons,” “Law & Order: SVU,” and “Entourage.”

Fans can expect the unexpected as these legends share a no-holds-barred trip down memory lane and unveil the behind-the-scenes secrets of the making of a blockbuster film franchise.

Add a new twist to your holiday tradition – gather the family and cozy up on the couch as the Griswolds stream directly into your living room for a live virtual event that is fun for all ages. Chestnuts and eggnog are recommended.
