This Hilarious Comedy Event (and, Of Course, the Comic) Is Anything But Ordinary

Shake up your Tuesday night with outrageous comedy! Stand-up comedian, actor, writer, and political activist Eddie Izzard will bring his Believe Me Tour to the F.M. Kirby Center in Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday, Oct. 2 at 7:30 p.m., and it promises to be an amazing time!

Over the course of a 30-year career, Eddie Izzard has proved himself to be a creative chameleon, inhabiting the stage and film and television screen with an unbelievable fervor. As a stand-up comedian, Izzard has captivated audiences with his surreal, stream-of-consciousness comedy— lines such as “Cake or Death?” “Death Star Canteen,” and “Do You Have a Flag?” have the status of great rock lyrics.

As a self-proclaimed “action transvestite,” Izzard broke a mold performing in makeup and heels, and has become as famous for his “total clothing” rights as he has for his art. He is touring his Force Majeure show—so far in more than forty countries worldwide and in four languages: English, French, German, and Spanish. With his brand of keenly intelligent humor, he has built an extraordinary fan base that transcends age, gender, and race.

Tickets, which start at $39.50, are available at the Sundance Vacations Box Office at the Kirby Center, online at kirbycenter.org, and by phone at 570-826-1100.
