It’s crazy to think that in 2020 it will have been 35 years since Pee-wee’s Big Adventure landed in theaters, and to celebrate the occasion the man who brought Pee-wee to life Paul Ruebens is doing something special for fans. For the big 35th Anniversary Ruebens is heading out on the road for Pee-wee’s Big Adventure 35th Anniversary Tour, and it will be making a stop in 20 different cities across the United States. The event will be produced by Live Nation and will feature a full screening of the film followed by stories about making the classic movie from Reuben, and it’s something no Pee-wee fan wants to miss.
