Funnymen Gabriel Iglesias and Russell Peters, along with special guest Lisa Lampanelli are bringing the New Majority Comedy Tour to the Agganis Arena in Boston, MA on June 4.
Gabriel Iglesias's high-octane show is a hilarious mixture of storytelling, parodies, characters and sound effects that bring all his personal issues to life, with a clean, animated comedy style that has earned national crossover appeal. Known as the "fluffy" comic in a Hawaiian shirt, the 33-year old comedian often riffs about his girthy middle - whether it's talking about how little dancing it takes for him to work up a sweat at the nightclub, or how hearing his girlfriend coo the words "chocolate cake" over the telephone works for him like phone sex, he evokes laughter. His credits include; “Last Comic Standing”, ABC's "My Wife & Kids," Showtime's "Resurrection Boulevard,” "Jimmy Kimmel Live," "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Good Morning America," “The Late Late Show,” FOX TV’s “The Family Guy,” "Showtime at the Apollo" and BET's "Comic View."
Russell Peters, the Anglo-Indian comedian hailing from Ontario, Canada has a style all his own. As much a humorist as a comedian, Russell doesn’t really tell jokes. Rather, he uses his wry observations on the subjects of race, class and culture to illuminate our human shortcomings with the sizzling accuracy of a well-aimed laser. His quick wit and ability to mimic language and accents allows Russell to create characters of all races and cultures and forge an immediate bond with his audiences, regardless of their racial and cultural background. His DVD Red, White and Brown which was filmed in front of a sold out crowd at the WAMU Theatre at Madison Square Garden has sold over 300,000 copies. In October of 2010, he released his autobiography Call Me Russell. You can catch him in the new movie Source Code in theatres now.
