“Vicki Lawrence and Mama: A Two Woman Show” will come to Stambaugh Auditorium on Feb. 13 for an 8 p.m. performance.

Tickets range from $30 to $90 (VIP meet and greet) and go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. at the Stambaugh box office, 1000 Fifth Ave.; by phone at 330-259-0555 and online at stambaughauditorium.com.

Lawrence, one of the most beloved television personalities of her generation, was a cast member of the now-legendary “Carol Burnett Show.” In the seventh season, at age 24, she created her most endearing character, Thelma Harper — or “Mama” as she is known to her fans.

After the Burnett Show, Vicki went on to star in “Mama’s Family,” which consistently topped the ratings for its entire six-year run of original shows.

Lawrence takes the stage first. “My show is not a retrospective,” she said. “It is a mixture of stand-up comedy, music and my observations about real life.”

Although she is mostly known for her acting and comedic talents, Lawrence also earned a gold record for the 1973 hit, “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia.”
