Patton Oswalt on Tour

A comedian, actor, and writer, Patton Oswalt continues to find success in all areas of entertainment. From his award-winning comedy specials to his many memorable film roles and guest appearances on his favorite TV shows (including "Parks and Recreation," for which he received a TV Critics Choice Award), Oswalt continues to choose work that inspires him and entertains audiences.

He recently starred as ‘Principal Durbin' on the NBC comedy "A.P. Bio," produced by Seth Meyers, Mike O'Brien, and Lorne Michaels, and voices the titular character on the hit SYFY series "Happy!". This summer, Oswalt served as the lead voice of ‘Max the dog' in THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS 2.

He provided the voice for ‘Remy', the rat, in Pixar's Oscar-winning RATATOUILLE, and has voiced characters on TV shows such as "Archer," "BoJack Horseman," "The Simpsons," "Bob's Burgers," "Aqua Teen Hunger Force," and "Word Girl." He is also the narrator on ABC's hit comedy "The Goldbergs."

Oswalt has appeared in many films, including THE SECRET LIFE OF WALTER MITTY, with Ben Stiller, Steven Soderbergh's THE INFORMANT, alongside Seth Rogen in OBSERVE AND REPORT, in Paul Thomas Anderson's MAGNOLIA, ZOOLANDER, STARSKY AND HUTCH, and RENO 911!: MIAMI, among many others.

He was in the film adaptation of Dave Eggers' novel THE CIRCLE, alongside Tom Hanks and Emma Watson, and played one of the "white voices" in the widely-praised indie film SORRY TO BOTHER YOU, the directorial debut of Boots Riley.

Oswalt recently received Grammy and Emmy nominations for his Netflix special "Annihilation," which received critical acclaim as he addresses his own devastating loss and dealing with the unexplainable, while making it all painfully funny. In 2016, he won the Emmy for 'Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special' for his sixth comedy special "Talking for Clapping" (Netflix) and a Grammy Award in 2017 for his comedy album of the same name.

Oswalt was nominated for a Critics Choice Award for his performance in Jason Reitman's film YOUNG ADULT, starring opposite Charlize Theron. In 2009, he also received critical acclaim for his performance in Robert Siegel's BIG FAN; the film was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award and Oswalt earned a Gotham Award nomination for his performance.

On TV, Oswalt had a starring role on Adult Swim's "The Heart, She Holler," was a series regular on Showtime's "United States of Tara" and the Netflix revival of "Mystery Science Theater 3000," recurred on the SyFy series "Caprica," and has had many guest roles on "Veep," "Lady Dynamite," "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.," "Parks and Recreation," "Justified," "Two and a Half Men," "Portlandia," "Bored to Death," "Flight of the Conchords," The Sarah Silverman Program," "Tim and Eric's Awesome Show," and "Seinfeld," among others. He is also very well known for playing ‘Spence' on "The King of Queens" for nine seasons. He was also a regular contributor to "Countdown with Keith Olbermann," "Real Time with Bill Maher," and Lewis Black's "Root of All Evil."

As a comedian, Oswalt has shot seven TV specials and released six critically acclaimed albums, including his Grammy-winning Talking for Clapping (which the one-hour special of the same name earned him an Emmy) and Grammy-nominated Tragedy Plus Comedy Equals Time that debuted in 2014. Finest Hour also received a Grammy nomination for "Best Comedy Album," as well as a Showtime one-hour special of the same name. In 2009, Patton received his first Grammy nomination for his album My Weakness Is Strong (Warner Brothers Records).

Oswalt starred in The Comedians of Comedy, which was shot as an independent feature film, a TV series and a long running tour. He tours regularly and extensively, headlining both in the United States, Canada, and the UK. Oswalt also has a regular, bi-monthly show at the new Largo at the Coronet Theater in Los Angeles.

Both of his published books Zombie Spaceship Wasteland (2011) and Silver Screen Fiend (2015) are New York Times Best Sellers. Last year, Oswalt helped publish his late wife Michelle McNamara's true-crime book I'll Be Gone in the Dark (which debuted No. 1 on the New York Times Best Seller List in March 2018) and he'll executive produce the upcoming HBO docuseries based on the book about the Golden State Killer.

    Patton delivers the funny

    by JC on 9/25/23Birchmere - Alexandria

    I feel exceptionally grateful for being able to see Patton in such an intimate venue. If you like a guy who can both deliver a well thought out, hilarious bit, AND think on his feet and ad-lib like a ninja, Patton Oswalt is for you. The Birchmere was as solid as always. Good sound, fast food service. We had a great night of well needed laughs.

    Patton is truly gifted comedian but skip the opening...

    by HC on 8/2/22Massey Hall - Toronto

    Amazing choice of material and of course delivered in a way that only Pine can. Loved every minute of his show but his choice of opening acts I could not agree with. That comic was okay but over the top crude hence the 4 stars

    Very funny, Way to short. only about one hour long.

    by Dan on 7/12/22The Wellmont Theater - Montclair

    I liked the small venue at the Wellmont. I was not happy to have and run my wife's pocketbook back to the car due to it being a few inches oversize. We didn't get the size restriction from anywhere we read online. Funny show but toooo short...

    I love Oswalt and Welmont!

    by Jinski on 7/12/22The Wellmont Theater - Montclair

    I am laughing everyday thanks to Patton Oswalt. He has intuitive, intelligent, humorous & heart-felt stories to laugh at, and it seems like he would probably laugh about the "intuitive & intelligent" remarks. And sometimes he's gross. Historic Welmont Theatre is always beautiful, excellent for experiencing comedy & music, and the staff is polite & professional and adds to an already enjoyable atmosphere. Thank you Welmont Theatre & Patton Oswalt! ~Keeping us on the upside~

    Venue Great, Set Short

    by AIvins on 6/24/22Majestic Theatre Dallas - Dallas

    I always love The Majestic Theater for any performance I see in Dallas. I just wish that the set was longer for Robin Tran and then for Patton Oswalt. It didn’t seem like a long enough show at all. Content and laughs were great. I just left wanting more.

    The talents Patton Oswalt gave another great show

    by Michelle B on 6/23/22Majestic Theatre Dallas - Dallas

    My favorite part of seeing stand up comedy is when they interact with the audience, and you can tell that Patton Oswalt is truly funny. Patton is smart and capable and gained so many laughs.

    Patton Oswalt…..great, opener Robin Tran….meh

    by Veezo on 6/22/22Majestic Theatre Dallas - Dallas

    Patton Oswalt had me laughing from start to finish. His witty observations of what it’s like growing older, his family life, and the world in general never fail to entertain me and get me thinking. Robin Tran, though had her moments, just wasn’t my cup of tea. The humor was more racially charged and seemed to be the bulk of her time on stage. I don’t think making fun of Caucasian people should be any more acceptable than any other race. And to be clear I’m full blooded Mexican.

    2 Greats

    by Brooks on 6/22/22Majestic Theatre Dallas - Dallas

    Patton was his amazing self with a set that reminded me of his tangential musings that dominated his earlier standup shows. I loved seeing his work include his family over the past decade, and it’s still there, but the return to form was also great. Robin Tran, who opened, was incredible with jokes that can’t be stolen and darken up your funny bone in ways people like me can’t get enough of. Amazing show.
