Wanda Sykes brings her razor-sharp wit to Durham Performing Arts Center on Nov. 7, 2025. The Emmy-winning comedian will headline the 2,700-seat DPAC at 7:30 p.m., delivering the smart social commentary and personal storytelling that have made her a mainstay on HBO, Netflix and late-night TV.
Tickets are on sale now through the DPAC box office, but fans can also secure seats at ScoreBig, where prices appear upfront with no hidden fees. ScoreBig’s transparent checkout lets you laugh harder knowing you’ve already saved on service charges.
Sykes last toured the Triangle in 2022, drawing a full house with jokes about politics, parenting and pop culture. Expect fresh takes on the 2024 election cycle, new material from her stand-up special “I’m an Entertainer,” and plenty of crowd banter she tailors to each city.
DPAC’s Broadway-caliber acoustics and intimate sightlines ensure every punchline lands, whether you’re in the orchestra section or the Grand Tier. Arrive early to explore Durham’s revitalized American Tobacco Campus, then settle in for 90 minutes of laugh-out-loud catharsis.
