Karen Knotts will be appearing in Tied Up In Knotts, a fun-filled evening dedicated to the memory of her father Don Knotts. A true father-daughter story, Karen Knotts’ one women show, Tied Up In Knotts, will delight, entertain, and take you on a wild journey, along with a host of zany characters all portrayed by Knotts, as she describes what life was like growing up the daughter of the legendary Don Knotts.

Karen says, “When my father passed away in February, 2006, I wanted to pay tribute to him in a way I knew him best: as an amazing, loving dad. It’s true that Don Knotts was one of the greatest and most beloved character actors to hit the stage and screen in America, with five Emmy Awards to his credit! However, in my one-women show Tied Up In Knotts, I try to capture the essence of Don, the man, because I always thought he was funniest when he was just being himself.”

Critics have said: “A loving joyous celebration of growing up with Don Knotts.” “A gem of a performance, laid back and entertaining. Karen leaves the audience with that delightfully contagious, warm and fuzzy feeling.” “It was a great one-woman show…I was very touched indeed.”
