You are now watching: The High Bar w/Warren: Matthew Lillard (Directorial debuts)

Posted on: Tuesday, August 16th, 2011

When Matthew Lillard (aka Shaggy) visits The High Bar, he’s in front of the camera where we are accustomed to seeing him as in films such as SCREAM, SLC PUNK and SPOONER. However, it is his first venture behind the camera, directing the adaptation of FAT KID RULES THE WORLD which inspires this spirited conversation with host Warren Etheredge, during which they question the prudence of career shifts, audience’s attention drifts and the pure joy of musical theater. Most of all, they raise a toast to and raise the bar for… directorial debuts. Zoinks!
