Review: Lucie Arnaz I GOT THE JOB! at 54 Below Plays All Her Songs
It’s been four years since Lucie Arnaz was on the stage at 54 Below. A lot has changed in four years. There was a hiatus, in show business and in life, there was a name change at Broadway’s Living Room, there were grandchildren born and hair color changed, and there were changes in attitudes and life philosophies, thanks to the aforementioned hiatus. But some things didn’t change, and one of the things that didn’t change was the magic to be found when sitting in the seats out front and watching Lucie Arnaz perform her musical memoir cabaret I GOT THE JOB! Actually, it did change: it got better. (Full article in link above)

The New York Pops Underground with Lucie Arnaz
On September 25, Feinstein’s/54 Below was packed with supporters for the New York PopsEd Fundraising event to help support music programs in all five boroughs of New York City. The event chairs were Hillary and Bill Weldon.

Lucie is, as they say in the vernacular, “one helluva performer.” (Full Article).

Reviewed by Steve Murray for Cabaret Scenes
Sometimes it’s fun to stop being a reviewer and just be a fan, and I am a huge fan of Lucie Arnaz. She’s a consummate performer, born to a magical lineage (Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz) and the associated advantages of rubbing elbows with Hollywood and musical legends. Arnaz is a dynamo, using her solid acting chops to add multiple dimensions to each number in a show she said “showed the arc of romance.”
Indeed, she did show all aspects of relationships with her smart song choices. (Full Article)

SEVEN QUESTIONS FOR LUCIE ARNAZ
Many think of you as an actress, but it seems you’ve been concentrating more on music lately.
For 27 years I have been doing concerts and performing in nightclubs, and I love, love, love doing it. I wouldn’t be doing it if it wasn’t for my father’s influence. When he died, I found tapes of his, some original recordings that no one had unless they were real collectors. I started listening to them and hearing what his big-band days were like. I wanted to be him! I wanted to have a band and perform like him. (Full Article)

Lucie Arnaz is for real - Daughter of famous parents does not disappoint
Lucie Arnaz is no light weight. As someone who is the daughter of two famous entertainers, she has the immediate problem of being tagged a nostalgia act, or worse, someone riding the coattails of her parents.
But there is not magic dust in the RRAZZ Room, even though it can sometimes seem like it. Lucie is a very professional singer because she has paid her dues. (Full Article)
