An “out-of-body experience for ‘Lucy’ fans” according to Showbiz Chicago, I LOVE LUCY® LIVE ON STAGE takes audiences back to 1952 as members of the Desilu Playhouse studio audience where they await the filming of two hilarious and oh-so-familiar I LOVE LUCY® episodes, “The Benefit” and “Lucy Has Her Eyes Examined.”
A charming host entertains and enlightens the crowd to the behind-the-scenes filming process of a brand new thing called “television,” the Crystaltone Singers perform advertising jingles in perfect 50s style harmony and the sidesplitting antics of America’s favorite foursome – Lucy, Ricky, Fred and Ethel – are presented live on stage and in color for the very first time! It’s a one-of-a-kind theatrical experience TV Guide’s William Keck calls “the most entertaining stage production I’ve seen in years – including Broadway!”

by Raigus on 2013-01-21Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - ChicagoI was born in the 70's and I could say that I grow up with Lucy's Show. I have to say that one of my favourite parts on the show was the bits and pieces of Spanish lines that Ricky Ricardo would throw in the middle of a conversation when “arguing” with Lucy. I am Hispanic and I think that having someone speak my language on TV was major!!!! Especially in a show that was made in the 60's. Now, I was highly disappointed with the “Spanish” presented by the actor playing RR in the play. On TV you could pretty much understand what RR was saying and it was funny. Not so much from the play. It might sound funny to mumble Spanish lines if you are an Anglo speaker, but not if you are a Spanish speaker. I am not going to say that I was insulted by the performance, I think it was a nice try, but not enough for me. I was just disappointed! I was happy with the play but it was pretty average. I think they could have used some of the funnier episodes.

by clock123 on 2012-10-23Broadway Playhouse at Water Tower Place - ChicagoI thought the banter at the beginning was a little excessive but I soon found myself transported back in time. Loved the show. Each actor brought so much to their character, it was great!
