The conversation will be moderated live on stage at the 3Arena by Ruth Scott.
Speaking about the 3Arena event Ruth Scott said, “Home Alone is such a huge part of Christmas for so many of us, so it’s going to be a real treat to experience the film with a live orchestra and choir at 3Arena. I’m especially looking forward to chatting with Macaulay and hearing some of his memories from making such an iconic Christmas movie. It’s going to be a very special night.”
