An Evening with Lily Tomlin in Beaver Creek March 17, 2009
Underwritten by Judy & Howard Berkowitz and Liz Armstrong & Michelle Alford
Lily Tomlin is one of America’s foremost comediennes. Tomlin has received numerous awards, including six Emmys, two Tony awards, a Drama Desk Award, a CableACE Award, a Grammy Award, two Peabody Awards and an Outer Critics’ Circle Award.
Tomlin joined the sketch comedy show “Laugh-In” in 1969. Several characters she created on that show have stayed with her throughout her career, including the gum-chewing, wisecracking, snorting telephone operator, Ernestine; the bratty five-year-old Edith Ann, seated in an over-sized rocking chair making rude noises while telling stories about her baby brother and pet dog Buster; and the Tasteful Lady, who lives a gracious, naive life of entitlement in the upper class and shades of whom show up in Tomlin’s film role in “All of Me.”
As with many comedy shows, some content may not be suitable for children.
