One of America’s queens of comedy, the legendary Lily Tomlin, will take the stage of the Rosemont Theatre, 5400 N. River, Sat., Nov. 1, at 8 p.m. for ‘An Evening of Classic Lily Tomlin.’ The one-night-only performance is a free-wheeling one-woman show featuring ‘guest appearances’ by some of Tomlin’s best-known characters.
Tomlin’s first television appearance was on The Gary Moore Show (1966) and in 1969 she joined the sketch-comedy TV hit ‘Laugh In,’ where she became known characters such as the devilish six-year old Edith Ann and telephone operator Ernestine. Her film credits include Nine to Five, I Heart Huckabees, Nashville and A Prairie Home Companion.
Tickets are $37.50-$75. Call Ticketmaster at 312-559-1212; visit Ticketmaster outlets or the Rosemont Theatre box office; or visit www.Ticketmaster.com.
