Australian comedian Celeste Barber is bringing her jokes to North America this year for the “Backup Dancer Tour.”
Barber will stop in over 20 cities, kicking things off at the “Netflix is a Joke” comedy festival at Los Angeles’ Orpheum Theatre May 2. From there, she’ll appear in Seattle, Nashville, Las Vegas, Denver, and Houston, stopping at venues like the Meridian Hall in Toronto, Vancouver’s Queen Elizabeth Theatre, the Beacon Theatre in New York City, and San Diego’s Balboa Theatre in San Diego before wrapping-up at the Athenaeum Center in Chicago on June 21.
Tickets went on sale Friday, March 1 via Barber’s official website. Fans can also score tickets from secondary ticketing sites MEGASeats (use code TICKETNEWS for 10% off your order), StubHub, or Ticket Club, where readers can obtain a free membership and avoid service fees with the code TICKETNEWS.
Dubbed the “Australian Queen of Comedy, Barber’s memoir, ‘Challenge Accepted!’ was released in Australia in September 2018, with a UK release shortly after. Celeste said she is “excited to tell some jokes, relive some awkward memories, and high kick my way across the stage.”
