An Evening with The Big Bang Theory's Jim Parsons

In the three seasons that The Big Bang Theory has steadily risen in popularity to become one of television’s most-watched sitcoms, there are few who would argue that a key reason for the increasingly enthusiastic viewership has been breakout star Jim Parsons. As the all-too-logical, defiantly antisocial über-nerd Sheldon Cooper, Parsons has taken writer Chuck Lorre’s lovably infuriating creation and turned him into one of the medium’s most hilarious characters. Earning an Emmy nomination and a TCA award for Outstanding Achievement in Comedy for his pitch-perfect performance, Parsons has been described by Lorre as “a force of nature. He really is that good.” Parsons will be on hand to talk about the series.
