Trevor Noah to bring TRUTH to Edmonton

Trevor Noah is one of these rarefied figures in show business who always tries to tell you the truth.

Weird, isn’t it? We’re constantly being lied to: by politicians, advertising, the media, our teenagers – and so it falls to the damned comedians we have to trust to be honest. In fact, the latest host of The Daily Show, and his brethren (former Daily Show host Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, etc.) would get in a lot of trouble if they lied to their audience. Even if they are preaching to the progressive (read: left-wing) choir as they are.

Which brings us to news that Trevor Noah is returning to Canada “due to popular demand” on the “Sorry, Not Sorry 2020” tour. He’ll be performing – the truth! – in Edmonton at Rogers Place on Saturday, June 20.

Tickets go on sale Friday, Dec. 13 (presale starts Dec. 10).

Noah, a sharp new voice in late-night comedy, explores his background in his new No. 1 bestseller It’s Trevor Noah: Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood; his credits and trophies are numerous, and include being named one of the 100 “most influential people in the world” by Time magazine.
