Cal Poly Arts announces a just-added matinee performance, “An Afternoon of Classic Lily Tomlin,” on Saturday, January 19, 2019, 3 p.m. at the Performing Arts Center. Matinee Tickets went on sale to the public Friday, November 2. The matinee will precede Ms. Tomlin’s evening performance on Friday, January 18, 2019 at 8 p.m. Limited seats for the evening show are still available.
Get together with Lily Tomlin for unforgettable fun and sidesplitting laughter. This unique comic character artist takes her audience on what the Washington Post calls a “wise and howlingly funny” trip with more than a dozen of her timeless characters – from Ernestine to Mrs. Beasley to Edith Ann. Don’t miss this warm and uniquely affecting experience filled with comical insights and wildly, witty observations about the human condition. An audience Q&A follows. (Ages 13+)
“With astounding skill and energy, Tomlin zaps through the channels like a human remote control,” said Ny Daily News.
Her long list of awards includes a Grammy, two Tonys, six Emmys, an Oscar nomination, two Peabodys, and the prestigious Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. She currently stars on the Netflix hit “Grace & Frankie.”
Student and adult tickets for each show range from $40-$110 and may be purchased in advance at the Cal Poly Ticket Office, Monday to Saturday, noon to 6 p.m. at Grand Avenue on the Cal Poly campus; by phone at (805)-756-4849; or online at calpolyarts.org.
This event is sponsored by Bert & Candace Forbes, Dolphin Bay Resort & Spa.
