Must-see music legend is singer and actress Lucie Arnaz, daughter of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz. She commands the Carpenter Center’s cabaret stage on Wednesday, May 8 and Thursday, May 9 at 8 p.m. in ‌ I Got the Job! Songs From My Musical Past with musical director Ron Abel. Expect the best of Broadway, hilarious behind-the-scenes stories, and an electrifying journey through the star’s musical past, including dynamite performances from her many Broadway roles ( Pippin, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, They’re Playing Our Song, and more!) The ultimate mid-week treat, Lucie Arnaz’s two-night run at the Carpenter Center takes place on the Center’s cabaret stage, where you get to take in the fun from cabaret seating never more than 40 feet from the Broadway star. Here’s a tip if you’re new to the Carpenter Center’s cabaret series—add the optional pre-show dinner to your order and you can whet your appetite with delicious food, iconic music, and Lucie’s engaging storytelling—all in one fabulous evening.
