I Love Lucy Live On Stage at the Segerstrom

this week i had the opportunity to see I Love Lucy Live On Stage at the Segerstrom Center for the Arts with my mom for a girls night out. my mom loved watching I Love Lucy® when she was growing up, and i remember watching reruns too, so we were excited to see what this show was all about. wow!…we were in for a treat. the show was fantastic, and a lot different than we were expecting.

I Love Lucy Live On Stage is the brand-new hit stage show adapted from the most beloved program in television history! it makes you feel like you are in 1952 and a member of a studio audience watching the filming of two I LOVE LUCY® episodes. it is like you are stepping back in time onto the Desilu Playhouse soundstage. a charming host entertains you while you get to see an episode filmed in Lucy's and Ricky's New York apartment and one at the famed Tropicana Nightclub. and it feels like you are really there. and in-between scenes, The Crystaltone Singers perform live advertising jingles of the show’s newest sponsors in perfect 50s style harmony. Can you say “Brylcreem?!”

you will definitely be fooled by these actors…they do an amazing job of bringing the beloved I LOVE LUCY® characters to life. they were amazing. the show had us laughing just like you do when you watch the original episodes of I Love Lucy.
