Russell Peters on Tour

The rare North American stand-up comedian who can sell out arenas from L.A. to London to Sydney, Russell Peters returns to the stage with his latest roving revue, dubbed The Deported tour. 

The current show features Peters' first set of all-new material since taking a break from stand-up after filming his 2016 Netflix special, Almost Famous (though he was hardly idle during that stretch — on top of starring in a handful of films, Peters also launched his own prime-time series, The Indian Detective, which came to Netflix in 2018). 

Despite ascending to rock-star status in the comedy world — complete with dramatic, dry ice–assisted entrances — Peters' routine is still rooted in relatable, everyday anecdotes, as he regularly reenacts amusing family conversations that give his jokes a broad, cross-cultural appeal.

Russell Peters Background 

Raised in the suburbs of Toronto by Anglo-Indian parents, Russell Peters is a true 21st-century comedian, with a massive international following that reflects the connectivity of our world in the online age. And he actually owes his big break to the Internet. 

After paying his dues on the Canadian stand-up circuit for 15 years, Peters became one of the first comedians to go viral — in 2004, clips of his Comedy Now special began circulating on the then-nascent YouTube platform, with his astute observations on racial stereotypes earning him fans across the cultural spectrum. 

Since then, Peters has sidestepped the traditional Hollywood star-making machinery to cultivate audiences in places most North American comedians never venture — countries like Lebanon, Singapore, and Indonesia. 

Despite never starring in a massive film or TV series like Jerry Seinfeld or Chris Rock (who once quipped that Peters is "the most famous person nobody's heard of"), he orbits the same stratosphere when it comes to selling tickets. In 2013, Forbes magazine ranked him the third-richest comedian in the world with annual earnings of more than $20 million. However, in recent years, Peters has made significant inroads to becoming a household name in America, thanks to his well-received 2016 Netflix special, Almost Famous.

    Russell Peters is a very funny.

    by Trevo on 2/4/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    I went with my girlfriend and her daughter. It was a great experience despite the disruptive drunk people that were sitting behind us, thankfully they were subdude a third of the way through the show. Russell is very funny observational comedian, it seemed a little like he was making fun of people in a mean sort of way at times. Overall though I really enjoyed the show. I would go see him again, for sure.

    Russell is always hilarious, and is relatable to Gen X the most. I will always go and see him any chance I get

    Disillusioned

    by ADC on 1/30/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    Opening act was truly bad. Russell Peters was ok but too predictable with no new material. Not worth the price of tickets.

    Not as good as previous shows

    by BlakesMom on 1/30/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    Always enjoy Russell’s comedy and humour. I just didn’t find this show to be overly funny. I used to have deep belly laughs but not so much this time. And u found it very short. His opening act was terrible. He actually had to read off of que cards. lol. His jokes weren’t great which is probably why even he would forget them.

    Russell Peters was so funny! We had such a good night seeing him live! Best comedy show I’ve been to. He was my first stand up comedian that I liked growing up and to actually see him live was amazing! Would definitely do it again.

    Great Show

    by Rob on 1/29/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    Russel was fantastic as always but the venue sucked, seats were uncomfortable and it took 45 minutes to leave the parking lot. A whole 2 exits for everyone leaving... more exits!!

    It was ok but the opening act sucked

    by Tammy on 1/29/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    Thought he would be funnier. He only stayed to one side of the stage. For the money we paid wouldn't do it again

    Russell Peters is back!

    by MGP on 1/29/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    This was a fantastic show. Completely new material from the last time we saw him. Great interaction with the audience. Left with sore ribs and a dry mouth.

    Russell Peters- Hilarious

    by Emma on 1/29/24Casino Rama Resort - Rama

    Didn’t stop laughing! The venue itself, not a ton of leg room, and the seats felt cheap (if I moved, the next 3 seats also moved…). Russell Peters did not disappoint. Would recommend and would also go see him again, preferably in a different venue.
