The film earned numerous accolades on opening weekend including: #1 Comedy in North America, #1 highest-grossing new independent film release, and biggest opening for a feature film in less than 1,000 locations since March 2020. His latest project, the comedy horror film The House Next Door: Meet the Blacks 2, is a follow-up to the 2016 indie hit Meet the Blacks, and stars Williams along with Mike Epps, Snoop Dogg and Danny Trejo. With a career spanning over 20 years, Williams has earned a worldwide reputation as one of today’s top entertainers, having developed a career seeded with thousands of sold-out arenas, an expansive list of starring roles on the small screen and memorable performances in major box office hits. Comerica Bank is the exclusive presenting partner of the Fox Theatre.
The tour will now perform back-to-back nights during his return to Detroit on Friday, November 4 and Saturday, November 5 at 8 p.m. I am grateful to be forever linked with Duval.Due to popular demand, Katt Williams has announced his all-new “2023 and Me Tour” has added a second performance at the Fox Theatre on Saturday, November 5. It’s a great place for music, and so much else. It’s a great city for comedy - it has been for years. “While exposing them, I was able to expose myself, so one hand washes the other. “It was a good opportunity to showcase a vibrant community that everyone knows is special, but most people just don’t know why,” he said. He is bringing veteran comics Red Grant, Gin Thomas, Mark Curry and Luenelle as openers for Friday's show in a city that helped him become a big star, thanks to that Florida Theatre show. My audience expects to get new material from me, and my job is to make sure that no other comedian is having the conversations that I’m having.” "I’m never gonna see that crowd again - every crowd is a brand-new entity, and that’s what keeps me going. “After doing standup all the years that I have, the only thing I know for certain is that today’s audience is not yesterday’s audience, and that’s what keeps the relationship fresh and spicy," he said. He's an Emmy winner and has a role this summer in "The House Next Door: Meet the Blacks 2." So, I wanted to harken back to the time when Katt Williams could come in and do an hour, just about your city, because he’d been there for three days and soaked up the experience.”Įven after two decades on the road, Williams still brings more energy and charisma to the stage than just about anybody in the business, but connoisseurs of comedy are getting increasingly hip to his technical abilities. Yet, that doesn’t mean that if you took time to investigate, you might not find something unexpected and magnificent. And we’ve certainly had others in our circumference who were far bigger and bolder and louder than we. We may not have been paraded as being sexy or desirable or well-known, and had that advantage. “Jacksonville and I both have similar backgrounds. “The calling card of Katt Williams, around the country, and part of the reason he used to get in so much trouble, and his name was in the news, and he was always THAT comedian, is that he would actually go to the city and go where the people are,” he said. Even now, three years later, it comes up regularly in conversation, here and elsewhere.

But my connection with the audience is one-on-one, no matter what size the venue.” “I started in 1995, so I’ve been able to experience every level of the comedy room, and there is a difference between a 300-seat venue and these humongous arenas. “It’s been an evolution,” said Williams, who turns 50 in September. Williams’ World War III Tour hits many of the country’s major arenas, which is something he does every few years.
