KIMMEL CULTURAL CAMPUS PRESENTS TOURING COMEDIAN, PODCASTER, AND WRITER, TONY HINCHCLIFFE IN HIS FULLY GROAN TOUR, SEPTEMBER 29, 2023
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (July 31, 2023) –– The Kimmel Cultural Campus presents, in association with Outback Presents, touring stand-up comedian, writer, and podcast host, Tony Hinchcliffe on his new Fully Groan Tour at the Miller Theater on September 29, 2023, at 7:00 p.m.
On this new stand-up tour, Hinchcliffe plans to give his fans a taste of raw Texas Wild West style comedy, honed in his new home club and regular performance space: The Comedy Mothership in Austin.
“From hosting the top live podcast globally, to his hilarious roasts, to his new residency at The Comedy Mothership, Hinchcliffe knows how to command his audience,” said Frances Egler, Vice President of Theatrical Programming & Presentations on the Kimmel Cultural Campus. “Known for his dark, unapologetic humor, he joins our Campus’ fall comedy line-up alongside Jimmy Carr, Eddie Izzard, Taylor Tomlinson, David Spade, Steve Martin & Martin Short, and more.”
Hinchcliffe began his career cutting his teeth at the renowned Comedy Store in Los Angeles—evolving from a door guy saturated in the world of comedy to a paid regular sharing the stage with the best comics in the world.
As the host of the No.1 live podcast in the world, Kill Tony, he has scaled his namesake platform to stream to hundreds of thousands weekly and over 100 million people total in its ten years running. Hinchcliffe and his assembly of enthusiasts collectively made ‘The Store’ the place to be on Monday nights before touring every major city in the US, traversing the globe in an international run, and discovering numerous fresh comics and elevating many more up-and-coming voices. With Kill Tony’s new home at The Comedy Mothership—Joe Rogan’s club in the core of Downtown Austin—this uniquely influential open mic in the stand-up universe has a legacy unrivalled by anything else out there.
As a professional wordsmith with impressive edge, Hinchcliffe partners his reputation as a roast comic with a long-working résumé supporting his uniquely qualified candidacy. From his membership of the Writer’s Guild to his Comedy Central rolodex of credits, he is a top draft pick to judge roast battles and extremely well-insulated by the company of the most respected working stand-ups today.
Other featured upcoming performances on the Kimmel Cultural Campus include Taylor Tomlinson: The Have It All Tour (September 7 – 8, 2023, Verizon Hall), Eddie Izzard - The Remix: The First 35 Years (September 14 – 15, 2023, Miller Theater), Nurse Blake: Shocked Advised Tour (October 14, 2023, Miller Theater), Loreena McKennit: The Visit Revisited 30th Anniversary Tour (October 20, 2023, Miller Theater), The Moth Mainstage (October 21, 2023, Miller Theater), Steve Martin & Martin Short: You Won’t Believe What They Look Like Today!
