Carole Lombard In SEATTLE!

YES! YES! YES!

I’m so excited to announce that the place I call home is celebrating the brilliant Carole Lombard for one month.

The Seattle Art Museum is bringing laughter back with a series entitled, Goddess of Laughter: The Comedies of Carole Lombard. A series of six films will be shown throughout July and into August. Tickets for the show are $7.

Kicking off the film series is Twentieth Century with Carole Lombard and one of my all time favorite actors, John Barrymore. The super screwball plays on Thursday, July 9 from 7:30 to 9:30pm in the Plestcheef Auditorium.

Here’s the schedule:
“Twentieth Century” (July 9), “Hands Across the Table” (July 16), “The Princess Comes Across” (July 23), “My Man Godfrey” (July 30), “True Confession” (Aug. 6) and “Nothing Sacred” (Aug. 13).

Members: $35
Adults: $39

Prices above are for entire film series. Series tickets may be purchased at the Ticketing Desk at any of SAM’s three sites or over the phone with a credit card by calling the Box Office at 206.654.3121.

Single-film tickets are $7 for everyone, sold day of show at the auditorium (cash only). Tickets are also available through Scarecrow Video: call 206.524.8554.

This is AMAZING! I am so happy. My friends GO and I will see you there! xoxo

  1. I am going! Why are they showing the princess comes across? It’s not really a comedy. Cant wait to see you again.

  2. I wish I could go. It would be nice to meet you. Bob told me you are “a knock-out and very beautiful”.

  3. The Seattle Art Museum ROCKS!!! Here’s hoping for more film festivals across the county honoring Carole!

    Have a great time, everyone lucky enough to go!

  4. I mean COUNTRY, although counties would work, too!

  5. A wonderful way to spend a Thursday in Seattle…six times!

  6. Vicky: I can’t wait to see you either. Will you be bringing your little one?

    Debbie: Touché

    Vincent: Agreed.
