FAVORITE SONGS OF THE<br />

GREAT WHITE WAY<br />

LUCIE ARNAZ LEARNED THE IMPORTANCE OF DOING WHAT<br />

YOU LOVE FROM HER PARENTS, LUCILLE BALL AND DESI<br />

ARNAZ.<br />

“I saw how much they loved the business. They did something<br />

they really loved,” Arnaz recalls.<br />

At seven years old, Arnaz loved putting on plays in the backyard of<br />

her Beverly Hills home and singing with her girlfriends to Bye Bye<br />

Birdie.<br />

At 11, she made her television debut in The Lucy Show; later<br />

becoming a series regular playing Lucy’s daughter in 117 episodes<br />

of Here's Lucy.<br />

Then, of course, the inevitable happened.<br />

"When I was fifteen, I went to New York and saw Angela<br />

Ray Benson, co-founder and Asleep at the Wheel band leader<br />

Lansbury in Mame, Arnaz recalls. “That was the deciding factor for<br />

what I was going to do with my life. I said, 'That's it!'”<br />

The love of the theater stage stole her heart, and in 1979, she<br />

made her Broadway debut playing the unforgettably wacky Sonia<br />

Wolsk in the Neil Simon/Marvin Hamlisch/Carole Bayer Sager<br />

Broadway musical They’re Playing Our Song.<br />

“Being a star in a hit Broadway show,” Arnaz says, “that's like<br />

being Cinderella at the ball every night.”<br />

Arnaz went on to star on Broadway in Lost in Yonkers, Dirty<br />

Rotten Scoundrels and Pippin; and in the first national tours of<br />

Seesaw, Whose Life Is It Anyway? and My One and Only with<br />

Tommy Tune. She loved playing the devil-loving Alexandra in<br />

London’s West End production of The Witches of Eastwick.<br />

“Singing, to me, is telling good stories through song, and good<br />

stories can be funny stories or sad, romantic ones,” Arnaz has said.<br />

This month, she’ll be at Irvine Barclay Theatre in I Got the Job!<br />

Songs From My Musical Past, singing the songs she’s loved<br />

throughout her storied life on the stage.<br />

The daughter of two Hollywood legends, Lucie Arnaz is in a<br />

spotlight of her own.<br />
