DENVER, March 5, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Carol Burnett and Fathom Events will
celebrate the comedic legend's 87th birthday with a fan experience
and celebration of "The Carol Burnett Show," one of the most
acclaimed and influential TV series of all-time, and the winner of
25 Emmy® Awards. Coming to movie theaters nationwide for one night
only on April 22, the event, "THE
CAROL BURNETT SHOW: LAUGH ALL NIGHT," will feature the
premiere screening of a brand new behind-the-scenes retrospective,
in addition to three classic episodes personally selected by
Carol Burnett for this special
one-night event.
Tickets for "THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: LAUGH ALL NIGHT" can be
purchased starting Friday, March 20,
at www.FathomEvents.com and participating theater box offices.
"'The Carol Burnett Show' was a passion project of mine and one
of the first of its kind to be hosted by a woman," Carol Burnett said. "I couldn't be prouder of
what we created during this time and I'm excited to have the
opportunity to showcase some of my favorite episodes with both new
and old audiences across the country."
Kicking off with an introduction by Carol Burnett herself, the three fan-favorite
episodes will feature classic sketches, such as "The Dentist," "The
Family: The Attic," featuring Betty
White, and "Went with the Wind," which are sure to have fans
laughing in their seats. Attendees will also receive a
commemorative and exclusive limited-edition poster (while supplies
last).
"From 'I Love Lucy' to 'Friends,' we've found that classic and
beloved television is resonating with audiences across
demographics, and that they are eager to watch their favorite
series in a new way - on the big screen," Fathom Events CEO
Ray Nutt said. "Our goal is to
always bring special and unique content to theaters for people
across America to enjoy together in theaters, and 'The Carol
Burnett Show' is just that."
"The Carol Burnett Show" has been providing fans with belly
laughs for over 50 years. We're very excited that this iconic
television series is now coming to the big screen," Shout! Factory
SVP of Programming and New Business Development Jeffrey Peisch
