Chris Rock Announces 2022 “Ego Death World Tour”
Chris Rock has announced the “Ego Death World Tour,” his first standup comedy tour in five years.
He shared a tweet in which he said the following about the tour:
“Ego Death World Tour 2022 all new material introspective very personal and very funny . Can’t wait to show you.”
Following previously-announced shows in Boston, the North American leg kicks off April 2nd with two sets — one early and one late — in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The 38-performance run includes extended stays in Reno and Las Vegas, Nevada, plus stops in Chicago, Seattle, Vancouver, and Radio City Music Hall in New York, with plenty of cities small and large in-between.
Last year, Rock tested positive for COVID-19 and urged his fans to get vaccinated. According to a press release, prior to heading out on tour, the actor wrapped up production on the upcoming Higher Ground produced biopic, Rustin and David O’Russell’s untitled film. He is also set to direct an untitled Chris Rock project in 2023. Recently, Rock starred as Loy Cannon in Season 4 of FX’s Emmy-winning drama series Fargo, as well as a reimagining of the newest Saw franchise movie, Spiral: From the Book of Saw, which he also produced.
His television work includes serving as a cast member on “Saturday Night Live” from 1989 – 1993 and as executive producer, writer and narrator for the series Everybody Hates Chris. The series ran from 2005 – 2009 and is still one of the highest rated syndicated shows in the world. In 2011, Rock made his Broadway debut starring in Stephen Adly Guirgis’s The Motherf**ker With The Hat. Rock has won four Emmy Awards, three Grammy Awards, and is a New York Times Best-Selling Author. In addition, he received two nominations for the 2016 Emmy Awards, for Outstanding Director for a Variety Special for “Amy Schumer: Live at the Apollo,” and Outstanding Special Class Program for the 88th Annual Academy Awards.
