A comedian, actor, writer and producer, Nick Swardson has found success on the small and silver screens as well as the live stage.  His unique comedic view has made him a regular guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Conan.

As a standup, Swardson's "Too Many Smells 2018 Tour" visited theaters in 40 cities from April through June. Swardson also tours regularly on a bill with Adam Sandler, David Spade and Rob Schneider. Swardson's latest special can be seen on Netflix as part of COMEDIANS of the World where he was one of four comedians selected to represent the United States.

    Funniest ever

    by Greycat02 on 10/24/22Revolution Concert House & Event Center - Garden City

    Nick Swardson is one of thr funniest comedians out there. When i saw he was coming to Boise I immediately bought tickets. He did not disappoint. I love his humor. I hope he comes back to Boise again soon cause we can all use a good laugh. Thanks Revolution House for having him.

    Ehhh

    by Sw on 10/23/22Revolution Concert House & Event Center - Garden City

    Opener was cringe worthy, literally would have rather gone to a funeral. He yanked bad and was not even close to being funny. Nick was good but thought he would have been on stage for at least a half an hour longer.

    Meh…

    by FTD on 10/23/22Revolution Concert House & Event Center - Garden City

    I’m not sure what the deal was tonight. I was super excited to see Nick but it simply fell flat. Claimed he has got “cold cocked” in Tacoma and had a black eye. I, honestly, did not laugh once. Albeit mildly entertaining, it was not a comedy show. Hope it was simply an off night and there isn’t something in his life that is taking over.

    If you care...

    by Chikki on 10/14/22The Chicago Theatre - Chicago

    Nick was on! Fresh material, hilarious! Our seats were on main level and not too far back; however, we prefer seeing comedians in a smaller venue so you can really see their facial expressions. Maybe a big screen to refer to would have been nice. Other than that, great show!!!

    Funny but …

    by Madisonian Fun on 10/5/22Orpheum Theater - Madison

    The Orpheum is an amazing venue. A real gem. I loved Nick on Reno 911 so I went to see him. I found he was not as polished as I had hoped, mostly just recycled old stories from his past. Wasn’t the kind of well rehearsed and clever performance I expected. He kept saying “this really happened” as he told story after story, which is sort of a comedy foul. Advice for him would be to be more real with the audience and pull comedy from his actual LA life. Is he single, married, have kids, have a BF or GF? Does he have an annoying agent, tour manager, a housekeeper? I don’t know because he never once mentioned these basic things, which creates a wall between him and the audience. He’s played some great characters over the years. If he’s not going to do comedy culled from deep, real, present day life, I’d like to see him get into character. Maybe do a whole bit as “Terry” from Reno 911, etc. Ultimately, that would have been far more entertaining for the audience. Nick is really talented and a funny writer, so I hope next tour he gets more creative and doesn’t sort of mail it in again.

    Bucket List

    by Dolphin on 10/5/22Orpheum Theater - Madison

    I feel so grateful to have had the chance to see this show at the Orpheum! It has been a dream of mine to see Nick Swardson perform stand up for many years and the experience was more incredible than I could have ever imagined!

    Finally! Swardson LIVE

    by Fac3M3lt3d on 10/5/22Orpheum Theater - Madison

    Once again a great time. One of my guests was handicapped and needed assistance and they gave us center section seats in the back row (which was empty btw 😢) but awesome. Sadly 6 balcony seats was way overcharged for didnt get used but overly grateful for their accomodations for his disability. Swardson was amazing. Finally got to see him perform live. No issues. Sad about the cashless nonsense and only 1 choice of soda (slice/sprite/whatever) that was odd. But the new cushioned seats on the floor were an amazingly great addition. For a previous event we had very uncomfortable wood/hard plastic tiny chairs. Not anymore. It was a great, clean, hilarious time and venue. Thank you Madison!

    As expected

    by Kelly on 10/4/22The Chicago Theatre - Chicago

    Absolutley hilarious! I was expecting poop and pee jokes and he delivered! He had a heckler that was annoying but Nick added him in and it made the show even funnier. Welcome Back, Nick!

    Great show!

    by Liz on 10/4/22The Chicago Theatre - Chicago

    He was hilarious, happy we went. Only thing was I never heard so much yelling from a crowd as that show. It was actually starting to get out of hand. Why pay to go to a comedy show if your going to be obnoxious the whole time and keep interrupting the guy??

    Fantastic show!!

    by Ron Swanson on 10/4/22Hoyt Sherman Place - Des Moines

    Nick Swardson didn’t disappoint! So glad it was all new material, he killed it. I will see him again for sure. Pretty cool that he went out after the show, and experienced what Des Moines has to offer. Highly recommend!

    by C. M. on 9/29/22Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater - Austin

    Insanely Funny

    by Daniel McCammon on 9/28/22Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater - Austin

    From the opening bit about diarrhea to the bit about an 150 year old man giving love a 90 year old man for being young, the whole show was hilarious.

    Nick is still hilarious!!!

    by _fembot_ on 9/28/22Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater - Austin

    Nick Swardson put on a great stand up show! I could not stop laughing. All his jokes were new, relevant yet the same style we are used to from him and love! I’m excited to hear he has 3 new projects/movies on deck! His opener was super funny too

    The third diarrhea joke was enough

    by Mik D on 9/28/22Austin City Limits Live at The Moody Theater - Austin

    I think Nick is a little old to be relying on poop and pee for laughs. Next time #hardpass
