Mame

Adrienne Theater
2030 Sansom Street Philadelphia

Meet one of Broadway's most memorable and endearing characters, Auntie Mame, in the musical comedy role made famous by Angela Lansbury (who won a Tony for it) and Lucille Ball (in the later film version). In Mame, the titular, free-spirited, larger-than-life New York bohemian suddenly finds herself the guardian of her late brother's son -- and together they create a life filled with adventure, hardship and a whole lot of laughter. Set in the Roaring '20s and Depression-laden '30s, the show's music reflects the spirit of the time while also capturing the wit and whimsy of Mame herself. Get ready for laughter and memorable songs -- like "If He Walked Into My Life" and "Bosom Buddies" -- when this classic musical takes to the stage of The Adrienne's Skybox in Philadelphia.
