Performing Arts: Comedy Chris Rock: No Apologies Tour

  • Chrisrock_large

Despite his somewhat disastrous turn hosting the 2005 Academy Awards and too many lame movie cameos to count, Chris Rock remains one of the funniest people in America. After leaving Saturday Night Live in 1993, Rock did a number of classic standup specials for HBO — controversy-courting rebuttals to Jerry Seinfeld's blasé routines — whose sendups of political correctness established him as the comic for the Clinton era. Rock's been busy since then, most recently producing the hit TV series Everybody Hates Chris. The avowed Obama supporter should have plenty of ripe material for his election-year No Apologies Tour.
