Paramount Presents: Eddie Izzard Believe Me Tour

Contributors

Eddie IzzardThe Paramount Theater presents Eddie Izzard: Believe Me Tour on Thursday, October 4 at 8:00PM.

This funny and emotional show reveals the man behind the stand-up with all of the fascination for an Eddie Izzard performance.

Izzard’s first book, Believe Me, was just chosen by Bill Gates as one of the “5 Amazing Books I Read This Year”.  Released on June 13, 2017, Believe Me is a New York Times Best Seller.  Writing with the same candor and insight evident in his comedy, he reflects on a childhood marked by the loss of his mother, boarding school, and alternative sexuality, as well as a life in comedy, film, politics, running, and philanthropy. Honest and generous, Izzard’s Believe Me is an inspired account of a very singular life thus far.

Izzard can be seen co-starring opposite Judi Dench as her son Bertie, the King in waiting in the critically acclaimed film, Victoria and Abdul.  The film premiered at The Venice Film Festival in 2017.

Tickets for this event are on sale next week: Monday to Paramount Star Circle Members; Wednesday to Paramount Members; and Friday to the General Public. Tickets may be reserved by calling The Paramount’s Box Office at 434.979.1333, online at www.theparamount.net, or in person at the Box Office Monday through Friday from 10:00AM until 2:00PM.
