Letterkenny plans live comedy tour

Listowel's Jarod Keeso is taking his Letterkenny comedy on a live tour in the United States.

The Letterkenny Live tour will make stops in June in New York City, Minneapolis, and Chicago.

The 90-minute comedy experience presented by Puppers Premium Lager stars Jared Keeso (Wayne), Nathan Dales (Daryl), Michelle Mylett (Katy), K. Trevor Wilson (Dan) and Mark Forward (Coach). The show will feature never-before-seen sketches and video, as well as original stand-up sets from Wilson and Forward.

Letterkenny has gained a huge following in the US since the show began streaming on Hulu. The show also streams on Crave in Canada. The series revolves around the "dustups" Wayne and his pals get into with their small town rivals.

Rolling Stone says Letterkenny is a wonderfully weird Canadian comedy, calling it a funny, oddball show offering big laughs.

Letterkenny tour dates:

Thursday, June 20 – New York City, NY – Playstation Theatre

Saturday, June 22 – Minneapolis, MN – Pantages Theatre

Sunday, June 23 – Chicago, IL – Vic Theatre
