Comedian Amy Schumer paid her dues in the stand-up circuit for over eight years, but with the announcement of “Inside Amy Schumer: The Live Tour,” the edgy lady will perform in theater-size venues for the first time. The trek, which will include over 20 dates through May, is coming ahead of her new television show, “Inside Amy Schumer,” which will debut April 30 on Comedy Central. Schumer has gigs scheduled at venues like the Gotham Comedy Club in New York City (March 14-16), Sixth & I Synagogue in Washington, D.C. (April 11), the Aladdin Theatre in Portland, Ore. (May 3), and the House of Blues in Dallas (May 17). The final show on tap will take place at Silver Legacy Casino in Reno, Nev., on May 25.
Schumer’s upcoming performances at larger-capacity venues should come as no surprise to those who have witnessed her rise over the years. She got her big break by finishing in fourth place on NBC's "Last Comic Standing" in 2007, and since then, she’s made appearances on television shows like "Curb Your Enthusiasm," "30 Rock", "Louie," and "Girls." This tour is perhaps owed most to Schumer’s merciless performances on Comedy Central's roasts of Charlie Sheen (2011) and Roseanne Barr (2012). She’s quickly becoming one of the brightest stars on the circuit, so purchase Amy Schumer tickets now to experience her comedy live.
