Many people know Tony Hale as Buster in “Arrested Development” or from his Emmy-winning performance in “Veep” with Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Younger generations cherish his character Forky in “Toy Story 4” and Fear in “Inside Out 2.” His children’s book, “Archibald’s Next Big Thing,” is now a popular Netflix series.
Now, area residents have an opportunity to meet Hale and learn how he does it all.
Limelight Theatre will present “A Conversation with Tony Hale: A Career in Comedy” at 7 p.m. March 2 at Lewis Auditorium, 14 Granada St., St. Augustine.

Admission for adults is $50. The student ticket price is $15. The price for a family of four is $100 (call the box office at 904-825-1164).
There is a special VIP after-party with drinks and dessert across the street at Casa Monica following the event. VIP party tickets include VIP seating at the Lewis Auditorium event. Those VIP tickets are $300 per person or $500 for two people.
