Macaulay Culkin is coming to Australia this November for a series of nostalgic nights celebrating the Christmas classic Home Alone, including a Melbourne event at the Regent Theatre.
Home Alone: A Nostalgic Night With Macaulay Culkin will combine a screening of the beloved 1990 film with a live moderated interview and audience Q&A featuring Culkin, who famously played eight-year-old Kevin McCallister.
The Australian tour will begin at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on Tuesday 24 November, before heading to Melbourne’s Regent Theatre on Friday 27 November and Sydney’s Enmore Theatre on Sunday 29 November.
Culkin will revisit his memories of making Home Alone, share behind-the-scenes stories and reflect on the film’s enduring popularity more than three decades after its release.
The festive favourite follows Kevin after he is accidentally left home alone when his family heads overseas for Christmas. Things escalate when two burglars attempt to break into the McCallister family home, forcing Kevin to defend the house with an increasingly elaborate series of traps.
Released in 1990, Home Alone turned Culkin into an international child star and earned him a Golden Globe nomination. He later returned for Home Alone 2: Lost In New York before appearing in films including My Girl, Saved!, Party Monster and Changeland.
His television credits include American Horror Story, The Righteous Gemstones and Fallout.
Culkin was also a member of comedy band The Pizza Underground, which performed Velvet Underground songs with pizza-themed lyrics.
Limited VIP tickets will include a post-show photo opportunity with Culkin.
Presale tickets go on sale from 10am local time on Monday 21 September, with general tickets available from 11am local time on Wednesday 23 September. More information here.
