Sarah Silverman Set To Return To New England With 4 Shows

Sarah Silverman grew up in New England, and now New Hampshire has announced her return. The bad news is that we have to wait until January 2025, but the good news is that the Sarah Silverman: Postmortem tour will include four shows in the region.

After hitting the legendary Beacon Theatre in New York City for two nights, Silverman will make her way up to her home state and conclude her tour with a week bringing the house down in New New England.

“Looking forward to hitting the road and connecting with human beings in a live setting,” Silverman said in an official press release.

In total, Silverman will hit the road for the better part of four months. The gigs kick off on September 19 in St. Louis, and then will navigate through every other region of the country.

“The two-time Emmy winner has been a staple in the comedy world for over two decades, with a reputation for tackling subject matters with her unique and provocative perspective.,” her official press release explains.

Each show will follow a strict no cellphone or camera policy, and guests are directed to secure their devices, including smartwatches, in a Yondr pouch. Although ticketholders are allowed to maintain possession, they can only utilize the phones in a designated area of each venue.

After two nights of taping in New York City, Silverman will head north for a hometown welcome to kick off New England week.

The general public on-sale for tickets will be Friday, June 14, at 10AM.

In addition to prepping for a new tour, Silverman has been recognized a good amount recently. Her most recent special Sarah Silverman: Someone You Love was nominated for a Grammy, Golden Globe and Critics Choice Award.

Silverman also "continues to host her critically acclaimed, weekly podcast, The Sarah Silverman Podcast, which relaunched on October 19 through Lemonada on all platforms and TBS’ Stupid Pet Tricks, an expansion of the famous David Letterman late night segment," her press release explains.

In the meantime, you can find clips of Silverman's podcast in addition to throwback moments such as Silverman's best bits on Saturday Night Live on Instagram.
