And the star, Robert Shields, will be there for the Q&A after the film.
Imagine: He once opened for the Rolling Stones, became one of the top attractions in San Francisco (2nd only to the Cable Car), performed in front of 2 Presidents and a Queen and was one of the most unique acts in Las Vegas, winning Entertainer of the Year Two years in a row – all without saying a word!

Robert’s life is one that truly proves anything is possible. This documentary tells the story of how he went from a teenager performing as a robot in front of the Hollywood Wax Museum to having a top-rated CBS variety show with his beautiful wife Lorene Yarnell, and, unbeknownst to him, became the inspiration for famous Hip-Hop and Pop & Lock dancers all over the world.
