Tom Mullica's one-man tribute show is a living, breathing, giggling, reification of Red Skelton. Tom has eerily and happily integrated Skelton's persona with his own. He faithfully captures the gentleness, sweetness, and improvisational aspects of Red Skelton, effortlessly becoming the Red-That-Was while simultaneously inventing a Red-That-Would-Have-Been. He riffs. He touches hearts. -
