We may be tired of living in unprecedented times, but Jordan Klepper is making his way to the Theatre District this weekend to not only let us know that we aren’t alone, but to also suffer the fools with us in solidarity.
Just before we set out our milk and cookies of democracy ahead of Tuesday’s local elections, the Daily Show standout makes his way to Boston for a little bit of commiserating and a healthy amount of the good word at The Wilbur on Sunday (November 2) as he brings his new show, Suffering Fools, to town. The new stand-up show comes after Klepper has largely served as the fresh face of the iconic Comedy Central show alongside Jon Stewart and a rotation of guest hosts including fellow comedy powerhouses Josh Johnson, Michael Kosta, and Desi Lydic. His recurring segment, Jordan Klepper Fingers The Pulse, has also won a number of awards – most recently picking up Emmy hardware in 2025 for Outstanding Writing for a Nonfiction Program.
In a sea of absolute buffoonery and craziness, Klepper continues to lead a charge of voices using humor and reason to bring levity to an increasingly intense and dour social and political landscape. Here’s to hoping we can all breathe a little better come Sunday night.
JORDAN KLEPPER :: Sunday, November 2 at The Wilbur Theatre, 246 Tremont St. in Boston, MA :: 6 p.m., $55 :: Advance tickets
