Chelsea Handler at Radio City
Comedian brings laughs to NYC
| | More
New York Times Bestseller. Successful comedian. Talk show host. Chelsea Handler’s career is as varied as her appeal. She is a comedian unlike any we’ve seen. She’s smarter than the pratfall physical humor women are often relegated to but confident enough in herself to draw from material as lowbrow and commercial as celebrity gossip. This ability to appeal to the perspective of a mass audience while maintaining a sense of intelligence is what has made Chelsea Handler so successful. On Saturday May 15, 2010 at 8 pm and Sunday May 16 at 8pm, Handler, presented by MSG Entertainment & Live Nation, will perform her uproarious stand-up act at Radio City Music Hall as part of the Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang Tour.
Chelsea Handler is best known for her popular late night talk show, Chelsea Nightly. Airing on the E! Network, the show has brought Handler and the network considerable success, drawing in viewers in numbers much greater than the average cable late night talk show. Her books, My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One-Night Stands and Are You There, Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea were both New York Times Best Sellers and her upcoming Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang will surely enjoy the same success. She has also guest starred on Comedy Central’s Reno 911!, ABC’s My Wife and Kids, Fox’s The Bernie Mac Show and The Practice. She is a regular commentator on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Radio City Music Hall is proud to welcome Chelsea Handler to the Great Stage as part of the Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang Tour, presented by Belvedere Vodka, May 15 and 16, 2010 at 8 pm.
