LAKEPORT, Calif. – The sixth annual Celebrity Who’s Who Lip Sync Revue comes to the stage at Soper Reese Theatre for three performances the weekend of April 18 and 19.

There will be two performances, at 3 and 7 p.m., on Saturday, April 18, plus a matinée at 2 p.m. on Sunday, April 19, of “Take a Walk on the Wild Side.”

The Lake County Chamber of Commerce said it is thrilled at the response the event has had since its inception in 2010.

Program directors are Diana Schmidt and Sarah Dutra, who also act as choreographers for several of the acts. Additional choreographers are Larry and Zoe Richardson and Rod Rehe.

Makeup is being done by volunteers, Lyle Colburn of Your One Stop Party Shop and Janice Hornby of Skin Fitness. Hair styling volunteers are Michelle Price and Carolyn Fifer.

The 2015 show has almost 60 people in 19 different acts. It will be difficult for those in the audience to not recognize a friend, neighbor or colleague in the performances.

“Take a Walk on the Wild Side” features songs about animals, many different animals. You’ll see and hear songs such as: “The Lion Sleeps Tonight,” “Beer for my Horses,” “Cold Hearted Snake,” “What’s New Pussy Cat?” and “Wooly Bully.”

“Celebrities” in the house for the show will be Tom Jones, Willy Nelson and Toby Keith, Paula Abdul, Katy Perry, Three Dog Night, Sam the Sham and Jimi Hendrix, to name a few.

Tom Lincoln will return for emcee of the two-hour performance. Classic cars will provide escort for our “stars” as they arrive to “walk the red carpet.”

Be sure to be at the theater early to watch all these great personalities as they arrive for their performances.

Please note, they can use some more classic cars, so contact the chamber at 707-263-5092 if you wish to help out on the red carpet arrivals. Every car will receive two free tickets to the performance of their choice.

Three years ago, the “People’s Favorite Act” perpetual award was instituted. The act that receives the most votes is presented with a souvenir trophy and is listed on the perpetual trophy that they get to display in their office. Voted Favorite Act of 2014 was “Funky Town” with an electric fish light show.

Seats for this fun two hour variety show are reserved at $25 per person for all performances, with a $20 special senior price at the Saturday 3 p.m. matinée.

A few VIP tables are available for Saturday and Sunday matinées at $300 each. These tables seat six and include appetizers and three bottles of wine.

Tickets are going fast. For tickets or more information contact the Lake County Chamber of Commerce at 707-263-5092.
