Neil lined up for ‘Company’ and SF Sketchfest

By Rach | Published Mon Dec-13-10 -

Eonline caught up with Neil at the Spike VGAs on Saturday, and they talked about their first Christmas with the twins, and his hosting advice for Anne Hathaway and James Franco.

Neil will be returning to the New York stage in April, for a three night run of Stephen Sondheim’s Company. The performances will be presented by the New York Philharmonic and directed by Lonnie Price. There will be four shows across three days, running from April 7-9 at Avery Fisher Hall. He talked a little to the New York Times about the show, which you can read here.

Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, December 17th, and ticket prices start at $65. You can book at nyphil.org, by calling (212) 875-5656, or in person from the Avery Fisher Hall or the Alice Tully Hall Box Offices.

Neil will also be participating in San Francisco Sketchfest this year. After being forced to pull out last year due to work, he returns to the lineup to take part in “Brian Henson in Conversation with Neil Patrick Harris”, on January 23rd at 1pm at Cobb’s Comedy Club, and The Paul F Tompkins Show, January 23rd at 7pm.

Brian Henson is the Chairman of the Jim Henson Company and recently created and launched the company’s live stage show “Stuffed and Unstrung”. Tickets cost $45 and are available here.

The Paul F Tompkins Show will take place at Yoshi’s SF. Tickets cost $30 and are available online here.

A yearly favorite at SF Sketchfest, The Paul F. Tompkins Show is a variety show for the 21st Century. Neither a parody of, nor a slavish re-creation of, “olde-tyme sho-biz,” The Paul F. Tompkins Show combines comedy and music in a contemporary fashion. So… sorry, plate-spinning fans!

Paul welcomes friends Neil Patrick Harris (How I Met Your Mother), Gillian Jacobs (Community), musical guest Tom Brosseau, and, as always, Eben Schletter and his band.

Neil joins Trevor LIVE lineup

By Rach | Published Fri Nov-19-10 -

The Trevor Project have announced that Neil will be joining a number of star names for at this year’s Trevor LIVE event. Neil will be performing a duet with James Marsden at the event, which takes place Sunday, December 5th at the Hollywood Palladium.

Hollywood’s most talented and irreverent stars will gather at the Hollywood Palladium to celebrate “Trevor LIVE”, the annual show benefitting The Trevor Project on Sunday, December 5, 2010. Recognizing the suicide prevention efforts of community leaders, the Trevor Life Award honoree is Kathy Griffin, and Trevor Hope Award honoree is Levi Strauss & Co., with guest performances by Sarah Silverman, Wayne Brady, Taye Diggs and Idina Menzel, Neil Patrick Harris and James Marsden, Queen Latifah, Telly Leung, The Dan Band, and Tracie Thoms. This one-of-a-kind show is under the guidance of Special Guest Producing Director Adam Shankman, with Special Guest Musical Director Ricky Minor, Special Guest Choreographer Mia Michaels, and Special Guest Script Writers Carol Liefer and Bruce Vilanch.

“Trevor LIVE closes an historic year for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning community as the tragic losses of young people have caused a resounding national outcry calling for an end to the bullying aimed at LGBTQ young people,” said Charles Robbins, Executive Director of The Trevor Project. “This event honors vanguards Kathy Griffin and Levi Strauss & Co. who are helping to usher in positive cultural change in this country. Their contributions to the LGBTQ community have always been significant, but especially recently, when young people looking for role models needed them, Kathy Griffin and Levi Strauss & Co. made their voices heard.”

Neil was the Trevor Life Award Honoree at last year’s event, and was elected to the board of directors earlier this year. Many ticket levels are already sold out but $100 tickets for the show only are still available, as well as some Platinum, Gold and Silver tickets. Visit http://bit.ly/TrevorLIVEtickets for details on what tickets are left and how to buy them.

Neil is also expected to be a guest on CBS show The Talk next Monday, November 22nd. The Talk airs 2-3pm ET and 1-2pm PT.

Write Neil Patrick Harris’s Emmy presenter intro!

By Rach | Published Thu Aug-26-10 -

When Neil hosted the Emmy Awards last year, John Hodgman was enlisted to introduce the winners up to the stage, using “less than credible” facts. This year’s gimmick is for host Jimmy Fallon to introduce the presenters for some of the awards using messages sent in on Twitter.

For example, Fallon said, he’ll announce the chosen tweet, user name included: “(At)blahblahblah says Jon Hamm is the hottest guy of all time. Here he is, Jon Hamm,” NBC’s “Late Night” host riffed.

To submit a message, visit nbc.com/emmys/imontheemmys and sign into your Twitter account. Be sure to include the #imontheemmys hashtag for your tweet to be considered for use during Sunday’s show. Other celebs you can help to introduce include Neil’s Dr Horrible co-star Nathan Fillion, Glee’s Matthew Morrison, and Sofia Vergara, who plays Neil’s boss in the upcoming Smurfs movie.

The Huffington Post has pictures of the seating arrangements for Sunday, where we can see that Neil’s seat is front row.

“(At)blahblahblah says Jon Hamm is the hottest guy of all time. Here he is, Jon Hamm,For example, Fallon said, he’ll announce the chosen tweet, user name included: “(At)blahblahblah says Jon Hamm is the hottest guy of all time. Here he is, Jon Hamm,” NBC’s “Late Night” host riffed.

Neil pulls out of Sketchfest appearance

By Rach | Published Fri Jan-22-10 -

The SF Sketchfest website has been updated with the following:

Due to a previously unforseen engagement out of the country that cannot be rescheduled, Neil Patrick Harris has regretfully canceled his appearance at SF Sketchfest, and has been replaced by Jason Segel.

Neil followed this up with a statement of his own last night:

“I’m so terribly disappointed to be missing SK Sketchfest this year, and I did everything in my power to avoid having to withdraw. I’m a huge fan of the festival, and I love the Bay Area, so needless to say, I can’t wait to come back… assuming San Francisco will still have me! Meanwhile, I managed to wrangle Super A-List Movie Star and Sometimes Nudist Jason Segel to join the show in my stead. He’s great. And single. So if you play your card right, you may just get invited to the “after party”, if you know what I mean…”

Apparently refunds are available, so if you purchased a ticket and no longer wish to attend, get in touch with Sketchfest or the Cobb Comedy Club directly and they should be able to help you out.

Neil Patrick Harris up for Sketchfest challenge

By Rach | Published Tue Jan-12-10 -

A couple of new interviews this morning! Firstly there’s one at the NY Post’s PopWrap, where they spoke to Neil as the culmination of a week of speaking to the HIMYM cast. He talks about HIMYM’s 100th episode and his directing stint, Glee, and when we’re likely to see Doctor Horrible 2, amongst other things!

PW: With tonight’s 100th episode, I have to ask — what’s your favorite?
NPH: It might sound glib, but I think standing on top of a taxi cab in front of 60 people wearing well-tailored suits, spinning around like a rockstar definitely takes the cake. It’s a close race filming on “The Price is Right” soundstage with Bob Barker though. That one made me squeal!

PW: You’re a big “Price is Right” fan from what I’ve read.
NPH: Well, yeah, I mean, everybody thinks they’ll be on “The Price is Right” one day. I was no different than anyone else, but I was an actor on a show, so I did think that precluded me from being chosen by the producers who pick the people to run down the aisle.

Click here to read the rest!

Neil has also been talking to the San Francisco Chronicle about his participation in the upcoming SF Sketchfest.

Q: Last year, you told that tragicomic story about your childhood dog Lester, who died and was bagged and kept in a freezer through winter. How are you possibly going to top that this year?
A: I think I’m simply reading from a book for “Celebrity Autobiography.” So I’m really hoping that Mario Lopez has some good stanzas.

Q: You’ve picked your book?
A: Not really. I’m still deciding. Didn’t Hasselhoff come out with a book this year? That would be good. That would be awesome. (Voice gets sinister) And then there’s always Palin …

Janet had two options for me, both of which I was dying to do. She also wanted me to be a guest on “Match Game” – and I will always be a guest on “Match Game” – but the Golden Globes are that weekend. Neither one required a lot of homework on my part. In fact, with “Celebrity Autobiography” I think the less you try to make it a comedy bit, the funnier it is.

Q: Are you going to hang around for other shows?
A: We’re going to hang out for the second weekend, so I think we’ll get to see some stuff. I’m actually looking at the Web site right now. (Harris scans the schedule.) Guest monologuist Moon Zappa. That will be funny … Edie McClurg? … ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic … Dick Cavett’s doing a Marx Brothers thing. That’s fantastic! I may have to skip out on Moon Zappa for Dick Cavett.
