Program Description

Description

In the 1950s, comedienne Lucille Ball captured the hearts of television audiences across the nation. Her wacky hijinks and fearless enthusiasm kept audiences laughing. Offscreen, she and her real-life husband Desi Arnaz launched their own television studio and pioneered new technologies. But what does it mean when an onscreen legend clashes with her offscreen reality? In this historical portrayal, historian and actress  Leslie Goddard brings Lucy to life, paying tribute to both true comic legend and the real woman behind the myth. 

If you've never seen Leslie Goddard perform, you won't want to miss this amazingly entertaining historical portrayal of the legendary Lucille Ball!
