    About This Event

    Kathy Griffin is an American stand-up comedian and actor whose work spans television, film, comedy albums and touring specials; she became widely known through the reality series Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List, which earned two Primetime Emmy Awards. She brings her close-observation, reportorial stand-up—favoring clarity and rapid, story-driven jokes over spectacle—to Town Hall for KATHY GRIFFIN: New Face, New Tour.

    About New Face, New Tour

    “New Face, New Tour” arrives at Town Hall as a live comedy engagement led by Kathy Griffin. The show frames stand-up as report and recollection, pulling material from celebrity culture, politics, and the afterlife of public controversy. Town Hall, long tied to New York’s civic speech and performance history, gives the set a pointed backdrop. One clear takeaway is how deliberately the act treats timing and candor as a form of authorship rather than mere provocation.
