Bobcat Goldthwait is coming to Chattanooga on December 16^th and 17^th for 3 shows at the Vaudeville Café.  If the only thing you remember about Goldthwait is that he played Zed, a howling, hyperactive character in the Police Academy movies, then you’ve missed the best part of his career.

These days, Goldthwait is passionate about writing and directing.  He makes independent films–his most successful so far has been World’s Greatest Dad, which starred Academy Award winner Robin Williams.  The film scored an impressive 89% approval rating on Rottentomatoes.com and was a hit at the Sundance Film Festival.  Goldthwait’s other recent films include Sleeping Dogs Lie and God Bless America.

Goldthwait’s shows at the Vaudeville Café:

• 9:30 FRI Dec 16, 2011
• 8:00 SAT Dec 17, 2011
• 10:30 SAT Dec 17, 2011
