It’s hysterical! – It’s heartwarming! – It’s fun for the entire family!  Join us for a night of warm, gentle humor at America’s funniest tribute show.  Tom Mullica pays tribute to America’s Most Beloved Clown as he magically transforms himself into the comedy genius of Red Skelton live on stage.  Red Skelton was an American comedian, best known as a top radio and television star from 1937 to 1971.  Skelton’s show business career began in his teens as a circus clown and went on to Broadway, films, radio, TV, night clubs and casinos.  Join Freddy the Freeloader, Clem Kadiddlehopper, George Applebee and a legion of memorable characters in this wonderfully-funny tribute performance by Tom Mullica.
“ From the day we met in the early 80’s, Red and I shared moments of both happiness and sadness together.  Red was kind to everyone he met; he was a touchable person who shared his life with those around him. He lived every day as if it was Christmas.  He gave me permission to use his material, gave me W.C. Field’s twisted pool cue and most importantly, he trusted me.  I once told him I didn’t feel as though I was contributing anything to life, and what I was doing doesn’t mean anything to anyone except me.   He said, “Tom, don’t talk like that and never forget that laughter, and being able to evoke it, is a gift of the Gods!”
