Join the Alamo Drafthouse and BookPeople at the Treaty Oak Distillery just outside of Austin for this incredible evening celebrating the release of Mr. Cranston's new memoir A LIFE IN PARTS.

Bryan Cranston will join us LIVE IN PERSON for a reading from his book and a conversation with the Alamo's Henri Mazza, followed by a live Q&A with audience questions, then closing with a special screening featuring one of his celebrated roles. Plus every ticket includes a copy of his book from our friends at BookPeople!



About A LIFE IN PARTS:

A poignant, intimate, funny, inspiring memoir—both a coming-of-age story and a meditation on creativity, devotion, and craft—from Bryan Cranston, beloved and acclaimed star of one of history’s most successful TV shows, Breaking Bad.



Bryan Cranston landed his first role at seven, when his father cast him in a United Way commercial. Acting was clearly the boy’s destiny, until one day his father disappeared. Destiny suddenly took a backseat to survival.



Now, in his riveting memoir, Cranston maps his zigzag journey from abandoned son to beloved star by recalling the many odd parts he’s played in real life—paperboy, farmhand, security guard, dating consultant, murder suspect, dock loader, lover, husband, father. Cranston also chronicles his evolution on camera, from soap opera player trying to master the rules of show business to legendary character actor turning in classic performances as Seinfeld dentist Tim Whatley, “a sadist with newer magazines,” and Malcolm in the Middle dad Hal Wilkerson, a lovable bumbler in tighty-whities. He also gives an inspiring account of how he prepared, physically and mentally, for the challenging role of President Lyndon Johnson, a tour de force that won him a Tony to go along with his four Emmys.
