Paramount Theatre Unveils 2009/2010 Lineup: David Sedaris, John Waters, Diane Keaton and More

The Paramount Theatre today unveiled a star-studded lineup for its 2009/2010 season, which looks to be among the best in its 94 years.

Kicking off in early October with American novelist and general literary badass Elizabeth Gilbert, the Paramount will play host to a variety of big productions (Of Mice and Men, Cirque Shanghai, Stomp), musicians (Rufus Wainwright, Wynton Marsalis, Woody Allen and his New Orleans Jazz Band), and heroes of public radio (David Sedaris, Sarah Vowell) through next May. Other notable surprises among the schedule include John Waters' doubtlessly over-the-top 'Holiday Show', the adorably rascally Don Rickles, and actress Diane Keaton.

Season subscriptions are on-sale now and available in two options: Option A subscribers choose a series plus an extra for priority seating, while Option B subscribers can pick any four shows to create their own series. Tickets to individual shows will be made available in September, but based on previous observation, most of the good shows are largely sold out by that time.

We've reposted the full 2009/2010 lineup after the jump.
