When Lola Dawn Fennell sits down to watch a tribute show to the famous comedian Red Skelton at the PG & District Seniors Activity Centre, she won't be alone.

The general manager of the Prince George Council of Seniors will carry in her heart the memory of sharing hearty laughter with her father when they watched the Red Skelton show together on the old black and white.

Reflections of Red, performed by Alan Greenwood, will take place Wednesday, June 8 at 6 p.m. and Thursday, June 9 for a matinee at 2 p.m.

Each show is a fundraiser with proceeds shared between the council of seniors and the seniors centre. The afternoon show on Thursday is sponsored by RiverBend Seniors Community.

To make the evening show extra special it will include an ice cream social.

"So have an early dinner and come for dessert and have a few laughs with Red," said Fennell. "It's going to be a wonderful show. Come and enjoy. I think it's going to be a lovely walk down memory lane."

On Wednesday, the doors open at 6 p.m. and the show starts at 6:30. Tickets are $15.

On Thursday, the show starts at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10 and are available at the Seniors Resource Centre at 721 Victoria St. and the PG & District Seniors Activity Centre at 425 Brunswick St.
