McCarter Theatre presents An Evening with Jon Stewart

(PRINCETON, NJ) -- Jon Stewart has announced a series of stand up comedy performances in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Delaware. Produced by Live Nation, the tour comes to the McCarter Theatre Center with performances on Friday, March 29 at 7:30pm & 9:30pm and Saturday, March 30 at 7:30pm.

Considered one of America’s leading social and comedic voices, Stewart has an unparalleled ability to connect with audiences from many walks of life through his acerbic wit, self-deprecating humor, and passion for doing what’s right. Stewart garnered a collective 56 Emmy Award nominations and won 24 times during his tenure as host and executive producer of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart where he redefined political satire in American culture. The ten consecutive wins for Outstanding Variety, Music, or Comedy Series represent the category’s longest streak in Emmy history. On Monday, February 12th, Jon returned as Host and Executive Producer of The Daily Show where he can be seen every Monday night for the next year.

Tickets range from $55 to $95 and are available for purchase online.  McCarter Theatre Center is located at 91 University Place in Princeton, New Jersey.
