Join the Roselle History Museum for our annual fundraiser featuring Leslie Goddard's hilarious and educational portrayal of the life of Lucille Ball. In the 1950s, comedienne Lucille Ball captured the hearts of television audiences across the nation. Her wacky hijinks and fearless enthusiasm kept thousands laughing. Offscreen, she and her real-life husband Desi Arnaz launched their own television studio and pioneered new technologies. But what does it mean when an onscreen legend clashes with her offscreen reality? In this historical portrayal, historian and actress Leslie Goddard brings Lucy to life, paying tribute to both the true comic legend and the real woman behind the myth.
