"John Cleese can be funny anywhere." — Entertainment Weekly

In this entertaining evening entitled "A Final Wave at the World" (or "The Alimony Tour, Year One") Professor/Doctor Cleese will be discussing his career in the zany and hilarious world of comedy, as well as his most pressing medical problems, his inability to find a suitable female companion, his mistrust of folk-dancing, and his latest plan for world peace.

Cleese is best known for his contributions to the world of comedy through Monty Python, Fawlty Towers, A Fish Called Wanda, and appearances on Cheers, Third Rock from the Sun, and Will and Grace. These days he writes film scripts, makes speeches, teaches seminars on creativity, plays Q in Bond movies and video games, and teaches at Cornell. This special stand-up performance promises laughs galore and a few insights to the medical problems of aging gentlemen, the search for a love life, dancing, and global negotiations.
