Intelligent Life On Stage
Though Tomlin is probably best known to audiences from her TV roles spanning five decades from “Laugh-In” in the 1960s to current hit “The West Wing,” she’s also made a name for herself on Broadway and in Hollywood.
Filmgoers will remember “The Incredible Shrinking Woman” while theatre aficionados get the warm fuzzies over “Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe.” That’s one impressive resume.
Fans of her comedic sketches of everyday people like Ernestine the nasally telephone operator and 6-year-old Edith Ann will have a chance to catch them and about a dozen other characters from Tomlin’s career during her 20-date tour kicking off March 5th in Tucson, Ariz., and criss-crossing North America through October.
Stops will include Carmel, Santa Rosa and Palm Springs, Calif.; Toronto; Kansas City, Mo.; Cincinnati; Princeton and Newark, N.J.; and Minneapolis. She’ll have a two-night stop in Scottsdale, Ariz., as well.
And that’s the truth, pppthhhht.
