Comic Celeste Barber Backup Dancer Tour to Hit U.S. and Canada
Celeste Barber is headed to North America. The multihyphenate, who has been nicknamed the “Australian Queen of Comedy,” announced this morning that she’ll be hitting the road in May with the Backup Dancer Tour across the United States and Canada.
Produced by Live Nation, the 20-plus city tour kicks off with a performance at the Netflix Is a Joke Comedy Festival at L.A.’s Orpheum Theatre on May 2. She’ll continue with dates through June and stops in New York, Boston, Seattle, Atlanta, Toronto, Las Vegas, Austin, Texas, and more. The tour will wrap in Chicago at Athenaeum Center on June 21. “Coming in hot America,” Barber teased today on Instagram, where she has north of 10 million followers.
The outing reps Barber’s third international tour and second U.S. tour. Her previous run, Celeste Barber: Fine, Thanks, produced a special filmed at the Sydney Opera House that was released on Netflix last year. She also had a one-woman show, Celeste Barber Challenge Accepted!, which premiered in Sydney in June 2017. Her New York show at the Gramercy was recorded for her first Showtime special before continuing with a sell-out debut season in the U.K. and Europe.
