After setting attendance records around
the world and completing one of the biggest comedy tours
ever with his Notorious World Tour in 2013,
comedian Russell Peters returns to New
Zealand
with his new Almost Famous World Tour
2015.
The Russell Peters Almost
Famous World Tour features ALL NEW
MATERIAL, plus Peters’ lightening fast improv
with the audience. “I like to interact with the front
rows,” says Peters of his signature
back and forth
with the audience. “I use the interaction to take me from
bit to bit. Some guys go on-stage with a script and don’t
deviate from it. That’s not my style. I have my set and
know what I
want to cover; I just use the audience to
move me in certain directions. It’s very collaborative
and each show is unique.”
This tour will mark Peters return to the Allphones Arena in Sydney where he holds the attendance record for a comedy show, a feat no other comedian has achieved. The Almost Famous World Tour will also take Peters to New York’s Madison Square Garden as well as Los Angeles Nokia Theatre in November and December. His last tour took Peters to 26 countries and over 200 performances, with over more than 300,000 fans attending his shows globally.
In the US, Russell can currently be seen as a judge on NBC’s Last Comic Standing, alongside Roseanne Barr and Keenen Ivory Wayans. Peters can also be seen in Jon Favreau’s critically acclaimed movie, Chef.
The Almost Famous
World Tour will also feature Russell's
Official Tour DJ's; Toronto's DJStarting
From Scratch and New York City's DJ
Spinbad, as well as video cameras and screens for
an up-close
and intimate show in an arena setting.
Starting in 2008, Russell was one of the first stand-up comedians to self-finance, self-produce and distribute his own comedy specials and DVD’s, with Red, White and Brown and 2011’s, The Green Card Tour LIVE from the O2 Arena. The DVD’s went on to sell over 350,000 units across North America. His last special, Notorious, which was filmed in Australia during his last tour, was the first original comedy special for Netflix. Notorious was also supported by a four-part documentary series, Russell Peters Vs The World. Peters currently has over seven hours of content on Netflix.
Russell has given away more than a million dollars over the past several years to various charities, from the Brampton Civic Hospital, to Heart House Hospice, Gilda’s Club, the MS Society and a scholarship at his old high-school, The Russell Peters North Peel Scholarship to send a deserving student to college. The scholarship is now in its fifth year.
