Shows at 8pm Thurs-Sun and also at 10:30pm on Friday & Saturday

Davidson started his career as a standup comedian in Washington DC, building a reputation as a crowd favorite through sheer hard work at comedy clubs around the area. As a young, cutting-edge performer, Tommy was spotted by major concert promoters who booked him as an opening act for A-list touring acts including Patti LaBelle, Kenny G, and Luther Vandross. Before long Tommy began performing around Hollywood and met Robert Townsend, who guided him toward his first national television appearance with a starring role in “Partners in Crime.” Shortly thereafter he met Keenan Ivory Wayans, who jumpstarted Davidson's career by offering him an opportunity to join the uniquely talented cast of “In Living Color.” Alongside Jamie Foxx, Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans the series made TV history with its originality.

Tommy made his film debut opposite Halle Berry in “Strictly Business,” before transitioning into high-profile films including the romantic comedy “Woo” alongside Jada Pinkett Smith, and the provocative urban comedy Booty Call (Columbia Pictures). His credits include numerous feature film roles, such as Spike Lee's “Bamboozled,” “Juwanna Mann,” and his pivotal cameo in Jim Carrey's “Ace Ventura II: When Nature Calls.”

Tommy starred in one of the most anticipated films at Slamdance 2010, “I Am Comic,” with Sarah Silverman, Carlos Mencia, Carrot Top, Jeff Foxworthy and Kathy Griffin. He scored big with reviewers and audiences alike opposite Michael Jai White in the critically-lauded spoof comedy, “Black Dynamite” (Sony Pictures), a huge hit at the 2009 Sundance film festival.
