Fans of Lucy? Feeling a Little Bit Country? Love the golden age of Hollywood?
Have we got the live theatre presentation for you. Ellen McDaniel-Weissler attended a preview of an Evening of One Acts by Shane Riggs at the Embassy Theatre, taking in the revival of the Marie Defense and the world staged premiere of Never Say Goodbye: An Evening with Lombard and Lucy.
“Never Say Goodbye: An Evening With Lombard and Lucy is a joy. It sparkles with fun, and its poignant moments are just the balance it needs to keep from tipping over into the mawkish, or simply an excuse for celebrity name-dropping. Make time to see it, and its predecessor, The Marie Defense. They make for an evening of contrasts and skillful theatre."
Read the full review below and make plans to experience this rollercoaster ride through pop culture, beginning tonight.
