If you haven’t seen an Eddie Izzard comedy special, waste no more of your time doing this pointless “work” you’re doing and instead get over to whatever you use to watch media and download some of his comedy specials. Whichever one you want, I don’t care. They’re all hilarious and adorable and British and quotable–at the same time!

Now, we’ll have the chance to see him live on July 18th at Carpenter Theatre. His Force Majeure World Tour America 2016 has sold out Madison Square Garden, and sure as heck is going to sell out here.

Here’s a quote from the New York Times, if you’ve heard of it!

“Sheer Comic Genius. His humor reflects the scattershot lunacy of Monty Python, but with flashes of Robin Williams’manic energy and a sophisticated silliness that is entirely his own. He is the most brilliant stand-up comedian of his generation.”

Tickets go on sale Friday, May 20th at 10:00 AM. Get ’em at etix.com, charge by phone at 800.514.3849, or run-do-not-walk to the Dominion Arts Center OR Altria Theater box offices.
