About

Martin Lawrence on Tour

Martin Lawrence may always have a place in Hollywood movies and on TV screens, but it's clear where he feels most at home: on stage. That's where he truly gets to showcase a comedic sensibility that's raw, unpredictable, and totally unbridled. One of 2018's most hilarious comedy events, the LIT AF Tour is a testament to the prowess and energy that Lawrence has demonstrated as a stand-up ever since he first showed what he could do at The Improv, the legendary New York comedy club that launched Richard Pryor, Jerry Seinfeld, and countless other greats.

Pryor was a big hero for Lawrence as a young performer, who came to comedy and acting after displaying great promise as a boxer. Born in Frankfurt, Germany, on a U.S. army base, he grew up in several cities in the U.S. before moving to New York in the mid-1980s to break into comedy. His raucous sets soon led to a spot on ‘Star Search' and movies including ‘House Party' and ‘Do the Right Thing.' In 1992, Russell Simmons chose him to host ‘Def Comedy Jam,' the groundbreaking HBO series that fostered a new wave of black comedians. That same year, his sitcom ‘Martin' began its five-year run on Fox, becoming one of the network's highest rated shows.

He found just as much success on the big screen with hit comedies like ‘Nothing to Lose,' ‘Blue Streak,' and the ‘Big Momma's House' franchise. He'd also set new standards for mayhem in ‘Bad Boys' and ‘Bad Boys II,' his action-comedy blockbusters with Will Smith and director Michael Bay. Yet even during his rise to full-fledged movie stardom, he never left the stage for long. The concert films ‘You So Crazy' and ‘Martin Lawrence Live: Runteldat' proved he'd lost none of his edge as a stand-up act.

Two years after his successful headlining tour Doin' Time: Uncut Live, he returns to slay audiences all over again with the LIT AF Tour. This time, however, he's brought some friends. With Lawrence serving as host much like he did way back in the day on ‘Def Comedy Jam,' the LIT AF Tour presents an array of veteran and emerging talents. Changing from city to city, the lineup of acts includes Jay Pharaoh, J.B. Smoove, Adele Givens, Rickey Smiley, and Clayton Thomas. Of course, with Martin Lawrence around, you know who'll run the show no matter who's there.

    Entertainment was fantastic. Really needed the laughter

    by Dee on 11/24/21Toyota Arena - Ontario

    Dissatisfaction was the seating was to cramp. Needed arm room to eat and some people are much larger than other you are required to sit next to.

    Nice night out

    by L. L. on 11/23/21Toyota Arena - Ontario

    The show was good, funny, nice. I wish Martin would of done a little more talking/performing. Maybe also get one or two more comedians to perform. But in all a good show.

    Wouldve been great if Martin Lawrence had been onstage

    by Claudia! on 11/23/21Toyota Arena - Ontario

    Taking nothing from the comedians who performed that night, Martin Lawrence's onstage time was all of 10 MAYBE 15 minutes. Was hoping it'd be more than just that.

    Good show, bad seats.

    by DW23 on 11/23/21Toyota Arena - Ontario

    The show was good and the venue is fine. Sound could be better. Louder and more clear.

    Funnier than expected

    by RH on 11/22/21Toyota Arena - Ontario

    Although I would've liked to see and hear more Martin jokes his invited cast was good. As far as the arena, perfect venue. Similar to universal amphitheater. Any seat is really a good seat. Great show!
