An Evening with Lucille Ball “Thank you for Asking”
Through the magic of a talented celebrity tribute artist, Suzanne LaRusch, the ever funny, charming and legend of TV and film, Lucy came to life in Tifton February 16. It was truly an evening with Lucille Ball. LaRusch made us completely forget that she was not the real Queen of Comedy. With a minimal set and clips from Lucy’s home movies, the night was magical. Written by LaRusch and Lucy’s real life daughter, Lucie Arnaz and directed by Arnaz, “Thank you for Asking” was clever and gave us a glimpse into the life of one of America’s treasures.
The show was part of Celebrate the Magic!, the arts series brought to South Georgia through a partnership of the ABAC Arts Connection and the South Georgia Arts Alliance. Taking place in the new, at least new to me, Fine Arts Auditorium at Tift County High, the show was well attended. The audience got to meet LaRusch after the show to get autographs.
Tifton has long been a great place for entertainment and this arts series brings a wide variety of artists to the South Georgia area.
