Improv virtuoso, teacher, madman—legendary comedy guru Del Close was a mentor to everyone from Gilda Radner to Bill Murray to Tina Fey. But despite training some of the most recognizable faces in comedy, he never became a household name, blazing a gleeful path of self-destruction that blurred fact and fiction, comedy and tragedy. Inspired by his autobiographical anthology for DC Comics, For Madmen Only chronicles Close’s life, career and contradictions, painting an honest portrait of an unbound creative genius who revolutionized the face of comedy as we know it. Featuring clips and interviews with Amy Poehler, Robin Williams, Jason Sudeikis and more.
