Set on Friday night, March 2, 1960, Vivian Vance is in her dressing room about to hit the Hollywood soundstage as America’s most beloved neighbor for the very last time.

This one-woman tour-de-force play takes Vance through the heights of hilarity, heartbreak, and most of all, her love/hate relationship with the one and only Lucille Ball. It’s about the woman we all think we knew, but whose real life couldn’t have been more unlike the unassuming, housecoat wearing Ethel, perpetual sidekick to the star.

“A moving and memorable portrait of America’s favorite sidekick.”
