For the last 10 years, “cultural inclusion in Hollywood” has served as both a four-letter word for some and a battle cry for others.
From making his bones as a pitching staff writer on In Living Color to co-creating the Bernie Mac Show and Insecure, Larry Wilmore has been leading the charge…by not only composing effective battle hymns but more importantly by taking territory.
With so many impressive credits as a creator and producer, it’s easy to miss that his path started as a stand-up comedian with a talent for mentalism and slight of hand. That is until you see him live.
“An Evening with LARRY WILMORE: Comedy, Magic, and ‘Merica,” is an opportunity for fans of his political observations at The Daily Show, The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, and his Black on the Air podcast to experience his wit interactively and his quickness in real time
In spite of the present polarizing political landscape, Wilmore’s allegiance to logic and rational decision making keeps him from being pulled too far in either direction, allowing for an evening of hilarious yet fair observations that avoids the pitfalls of turning into a rally.
If you’re already a fan, you know this is a show you want to see.
