The late Red Skelton was one of America's most beloved comedians and classic "clowns," creating such memorable characters as Clem Kadiddlehopper, Junior the mean widdle kid, Sheriff Deadeye, and others. Tom Mullica, who was a close friend to Red, performs a tribute to this American legend at the Mansion America Theatre in Branson Missouri in a show entitled "Red Skelton — A Performance Tribute by Tom Mullica." Mullica honors Red's brilliant and wholesome comedy performances by resurrecting the classic characters that captured the heart of Americans and is able to transport audiences into an earlier America, where jokes were free from obscenities. Visitors swear that Mullica can actually transform himself into Red Skelton, expertly portraying the late comedian's moves, facial expressions and voice.
FULL DESCRIPTION
Tom is the most under rated show in Branson. I don't think people appreciate true comedic talent as much anymore but Tom as Red is not to be missed. He is a 1st class acting talent and He was fabulous. We enjoyed this show the most!
