Eddie Izzard at Byers Theater

In Conversation with Larry David

Join everyone's favorite curmudgeon for an evening of conversation, moderated by special guests at every stop. Don't miss your chance to see Larry David discuss his storied career spent changing the comedy landscape from Seinfeld to Curb Your Enthusiasm. We think it's going to be pretty pretty good!

David Cross at Tabernacle

David Cross

Many know him as the kooky never-nude Tobias Funke from the cult classic show Arrested Development, or as the titular character in the black comedy The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret, but David Cross cultivated his humor as a young stand-up in New York in the 80s before establishing himself as a TV star. The comedian steps back into the spotlight with his 'The End Of The Beginning Of The End' tour, kicking off this fall!

Felipe Esparza at Center Stage Theater

Felipe Esparza

With his wild tangle of curly black hair and a boyish, mischievous grin permanently on his face, Felipe Esparza cuts a unique figure in the world of stand up. Winner of the 2010 season of Last Comic Standing, the Mexican-born, East LA-raised funnyman overcame the poverty, gang violence and drug addiction of his youth using comedy as an emotional outlet. Don't miss this hilarious dark horse of comedy!

Jerry Seinfeld at Fox Theatre

Jerry Seinfeld

He will always be unquestionably linked to his namesake series, but since finishing it in 1998, Jerry Seinfeld has kept extremely busy. In 2002 he starred as the subject of "Comedian", a behind-the-scenes documentary film that followed him both on and off-stage travelling on his national stand-up tour, which reflected on his post-Seinfeld life - including fatherhood. He's continued to work of various TV projects ever since, and regularly hits the road on tour to show the newcomers how it's done.

Atsuko Okatsuka at Center Stage Theater

Atsuko Okatsuka

Comedian Atsuko Okatsuka is coming to you! Okatsuka went viral after creating the #Dropchallenge with her grandmother, where she drops (like it's hot!) and comes back up as slowly as she possibly can, she even taught Chelsea Handler how to do it on Jimmy Kimmel Live. The method behind her madness is pure and simple, silliness, saying that if it makes her happy, she hopes it'll make others happy. Striving to spread joy through her comedy, she's the perfect way to beat those end-of-summer blues. Tickets are quickly selling out, so get yours now for her nationwide tour!

Whitney Cummings at Atlanta Symphony Hall

Whitney Cummings

Co-creator of 2 Broke Girls, podcast host and star of her own NBC show, the hilariously honest comedian Whitney Cummings is taking to the road. Expect an evening of laughter as this candid comic lets you into her sarcastic world. With past targets including workplace politics, co-dependency, relationships and more, nothing is off-limits for Cummings.

Carlos Ballarta at Gas South Theatre

Carlos Ballarta

Mexican comedian Carlos Ballarta is touring across the States this fall. Not one to follow in the footsteps of others, Ballarta is the first comic to have performed their whole set in Spanish at multiple venues, including Montreal's Just for Laughs comedy festival. Want three jokes about elotes? He's got them. Famed for his dark sense of humor, Ballarta typically focuses on topics such as politics and religion, with a splash of family life thrown in for good measure. Whether you're learning Spanish or a native speaker, this one's for you!

Jessica Kirson at Atlanta Symphony Hall

Jessica Kirson

Comedic powerhouse Jessica Kirson is heading out on a countrywide tour this fall. Kirson has previously won awards for Best Female Comic, and Best Stand-up Comedian, and it's easy to see why. Her unique brand of comedy, utilizing inner monologues turned away from the crowd, gallows humor, and her identity and upbringing are all hugely relatable and are sure to have you laughing the night away. Tickets are selling out fast, so get yours now and don't miss out!

Kumail Nanjiani at Tabernacle

Kumail Nanjiani

You may have seen Kumail Nanjiani steal the show on HBO's Silicon Valley, or on many of his guest turns on some of today's best comedy television such as Broad City, Portlandia, Adventure Time and many more. Or perhaps on his Comedy Central series with Jonah Ray or maybe you've heard him on one of his podcasts. If yes to any of the above then you'll be ready for a night of witty observation and hilarious stories from his life in LA and childhood in Pakistan. If no, well, why not?

Rickey Smiley at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre

Rickey Smiley

With a penchant for good, clean fun, multi-talented entertainer Ricky Smiley has been bringing the laughs for over 25 years.
