Program Description

Making an encore appearance at the Library after her double performance as Joan Crawford and Bette Davis in 2022, performer Jillann Gabrielle brings us another original one-woman musical extravaganza. Jillann traces the life of Lucille Ball, America's most beloved comedienne, from her shaky family beginnings in upstate New York, through Broadway, and finally to Hollywood, meeting and marrying Desi Arnaz along the way—their volatile but passionate marriage, her reign as Queen of the B movies, and finally to her zenith as the Lucy character on TV. Brought to you in partnership with the River Forest Township.
