Calling all lovers of surrealist comedy (or just straight-up weirdness) — Tim and Eric are going on a massive tour in 2020. The tour begins in Sydney, Australia on January 15, and will travel through Australia and the United States until March, including Albany, New York’s The Egg Performing Arts Center on February 14th (Valentine’s Day).
Tim Heidecker and Eric Wareheim have been [adult swim] staples since 2004 and their production company, Abso Lutely Productions, has helped bring shows like The Eric Andre Show, The Birthday Boys, W/ Bob & David and Nathan For You to audiences across the nation. They have also had their own shows, like Tim and Eric’s Bedtime Stories, Tim and Eric Awesome Show Great Job! and Tom Goes To The Mayor. Anyone familiar with Tim and Eric’s brand of comedy knows the duo is surreal, bizarre, and hilarious — and if this teaser for their tour is any indication, their live show will be very similar.
Heidecker is also a musician, who has released multiple albums, including this year’s What the Brokenhearted Do…. He also co-hosts “On Cinema” and stars in “Decker” and has appeared in several movies, the most recent being 2019’s Us. Wareheim had a reoccurring role on “Master Of None”, has also been featured in many movies and television shows, and co-owns La Jaras Wines.
Tickets for Tim and Eric’s Mandatory Attendance Tour (and as they said, attendance is mandatory and legally binding if you watch the video) will be available on Friday, September 27th at 10:00am and will be available at their website.
