Any year in which we get a new special from Iliza Shlesinger is a year in which we are better off. Now, as we start to see the closing frames 2025 in clear view, the powerhouse herself is returning to the area to bring the heat in person, and put some extra punctuation on a very successful year.
With a one-two weekend punch of shows planned for Medford’s Chevalier Theatre starting on Friday (November 14), the global comedy star and Emerson alum makes her way back to the city as part of her Iliza! Live tour, which has brought her overseas, as well as all over North America for the better part of the last three months. Before announcing what will evidently be her “last tour for awhile,” Shlesinger added to her illustrious catalog of successful specials with A Different Animal, which landed on Amazon Prime Video back in March.
While it may be tough, and even depressing, to think about a time where Shlesinger won’t be killing it on stage, that gives us all the more reason to watch her destroy in action while we have the chance.
ILIZA SHLESINGER :: Friday, November 14 and Saturday, November 15 at The Chevalier Theatre, 30 Forest St. in Medford, MA :: Times vary, $76.25 to $95 :: Venue and ticket info
