About

Two-time Grammy award winning comedian/actor/writer Lewis Black uses his trademark style of comedic yelling and finger pointing to expose the absurdities of life. His comedic brilliance makes people laugh at life's hypocrisies and the insanity he sees in the world. He has performed throughout the world and the US, where he performed at Carnegie Hall and had two successful Broadway runs.

His latest stand-up special, Tragically, I Need You, released earlier this year and has already surpassed 1.3 million views on YouTube. The brand-new special explores topics including his ways of coping with the pandemic, his frustrations with the evolving world, and of course his thoughts about the chaos of America these last few years.

Adding a unique element to podcasting, Black delivers audience-written Rants which have been submitted from fans around the world on his podcast, Rant Cast.

Black is the longest-running contributor on Comedy Central's THE DAILY SHOW and his stand-up specials have appeared on HBO, Comedy Central, Showtime, and Epix.

In 2020, he released Thanks for Risking Your Life. In 2015, Black notably voiced the character "Anger" in the Pixar Academy Award-winning film, Inside Out. His other notable films include Universal's Accepted co-starring Jonah Hill, Blake Lively and Justin Long, and also Man Of The Year opposite Robin Williams, Christopher Walken, Laura Linney, and Jeff Goldblum.

The comedian has released eight critically acclaimed comedy albums including the 2007 Grammy Award-Winner, The Carnegie Hall Performance. He won his second Grammy in 2011 for his album, Stark Raving Black, and has a total of 6 Grammys nominations. He has published three bestsellers: Nothing's Sacred (Simon & Schuster, 2005), Me of Little Faith (Riverhead Books, 2008) and I'm Dreaming of a Black Christmas (Riverhead Books, 2010).

A published playwright, he's written over 40 plays and has found his work performed throughout the country, including at the A.C.T. Theatre, the Magic Theatre, The Williamstown Theatre Festival, and The Public Theatre.

In addition to his professional pursuits, Lewis is dedicated to a number of charitable organizations including the Luv U Project, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, and The 52nd Street Project.

He's also deeply committed to supporting our troops. A seasoned USO tour veteran, he's performed for the troops on three Christmas tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Lewis is currently on his 2023 Off The Rails Tour. For dates and more info go-to: www.Lewisblack.com.

    Mr. Black never fails to make you laugh

    by Adel Mozip on 2022-07-26The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    I was in Niagra for a quick gateway and stumbled upon the show. I've watched Mr. Black for a very long time on the Daily Show and he's one of my fave comedians. His comedy is hilarious, especially to political junkies like myself. The theatre was beautiful and I enjoyed every minute of it!

    Absolutely Hilarious

    by Trevor on 2022-07-25The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    I have to tell you, I was worried that my wife wasn’t going to be impressed with his comedic style, she was also bit apprehensive and not sure if she was going to enjoy at all either…low and behold, she laughed the whole time and told all our friends that asked how the show was, how much she enjoyed it!! Score one for me buying them…score the biggest one for Lewis Black not letting me down! Would totally see him again.

    Fantastic show

    by McBagpipes on 2022-07-25The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Fantastic show, well done and Lewis has a one of a kind stage presence. Smart humour that went deep and also lots of little fun asides. We will definitely be looking to see him again soon!

    Wonderful show by grateful artist!

    by danicak on 2022-07-25The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    I have always liked Lewis Black's comedy. I didn't know what to expect when seeing him live on stage. He did not disappoint. He was very funny and at the same time grateful to be back on stage with a live audience. He is a treasure.

    I love lewis black

    by Chewey25 on 2022-07-25The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    I love lewis black. This was my fourth time seeing him. Being that we have all been locked up for a couple of years, the material wasn't his greatest but still a good time and great laugh. Avolon theatre has crazy small seats with no armrests so you better like your neighbour :-)

    Lewis has done better

    by Paulie on 2022-07-25The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    Maybe I just am reliving those shows you can see on YouTube, but I felt Lewis was not at his best. I smiled here and there, but it actually didn’t make me “burst out laughing”. I will continue to follow him, but this show was “meh”… but glad I got to see him out and about.

    Lewis Black has Honed the Rant to a Fine Edge

    by David C on 2022-07-25The Avalon Theatre At Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort - Niagara Falls

    I’ve wanted to see him for years and just never been in the same city at the right time. Black did not disappoint. His special take on humour and society is a treat to watch. Laughs are deep and sustained. He connects in surprising ways with his audience. After a long pandemic break from performance he remarked that “what I missed is my connection with you”. This admission came with a moment of emotional pause that if one was not watching carefully you might not have noticed. He loves his audience. I thoroughly enjoyed being immersed in his acerbic perspective. Keep it up Lewis!
