Anyone who grew up watching TV in the early naughts probably remembers the groundbreaking sketch comedy Chappelle's Show. Created and hosted by Dave Chappelle, the show became an instant hit and Chappelle opened up a new brand of comedy that didn't shy away from topics like prostitution, drug abuse and gun violence, using comedy to talk about race and class in America in a way that had never been done before.
Though the show ended after two seasons back in 2004, Chappelle has been a big part of the comedy scene ever since. He celebrated 30 years of comedy in 2017 by releasing 4 stand-up specials on Netflix.
This month, Chappelle's making his very first tour to Japan for a one-day show at Hulic Hall Tokyo. Tickets went on sale March 1st and they're bound to sell out fast, so reserve now while you still can.
