When Jim Gaffigan brings his Barely Alive Tour to the Kia Center Thursday night, it will be one of the first stand-up shows anywhere in America in 2025.
It’s a new tour, with a new set of fresh material, following up on Gaffigan’s newest special,
The Skinny,
which dropped on Hulu late last year.
Gaffigan’s return to Central Florida comes hot (well, warm) on the heels of his portrayal of Tim Walz on
Saturday Night Live
, a show he’d previously hosted, then returned to — along with former cast members like Andy Samberg, Adam Sandler and of course Maya Rudolph — to pop a rating as Season 50 limped along.
Despite writing two books and releasing 16 comedy albums (with seven Grammy nominations), this was his introduction to many viewers. While the tour, as noted, is Barely Alive, Gaffigan himself is the picture of health.
7 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 2, Kia Center, 400 W. Church St., kiacenter.com, $35-$95.
