Cedric Returns To His Comedy Roots
Give the gift of belly laughter this Valentine's Day, when the one and only Cedric the Entertainer blows into Dallas for a special one-off stand up comedy show! Born and raised in Jefferson City, Missouri, the midwestern mogul cut his teeth on the Chicago stand up scene, which lead to appearances on the Steve Harvey show and multiple other sitcoms before the bright lights of Hollywood came calling in the late 90s. Over the course of a career spanning three decades, the funnyman has appeared in over forty feature film productions including iconic comedy Barbershop opposite Ice T, animated children's classic Madagascar and most recently First Reformed opposite Christian Bale.
Returning to his live comedy roots for the special romantic holiday show, Cedric is sure to live up to his namesake, wrangling laugh-till-you-cry moments from everyday observations and situations that pick up on topics like aging, weight loss, nicotine patches and prostrate exams... Sometimes he brings the house down with not so everyday situations,
as in the paparazzi's constant mistaking him for Cee-Lo Green and his hilarious defending of his buddy Steve Harvey's Miss Universe faux pas. Commonplace or not, his subject matter is the perfect foundation for a mesmeric physical comedy and impressive roster of impersonations that leaves audiences hooting and howling well into the night.
