The Dark Matter Tour will come to town

Comedian Katt Williams will bring The Dark Matter Tour at 8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 8 to the accesso ShoWare Center in Kent.

The tour promises a night of unparalleled comedy that breaks through boundaries and challenges the status quo, according to a ShoWare Center promotion.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, June 30 at accessoshowarecenter.com. Prices are $250, $175, $125, $99, $75 and $59.

With a career spanning over 20 years, Williams has earned a worldwide reputation as one of today’s top entertainers, having developed a career seeded with thousands of sold-out arenas, an expansive list of starring roles on the small screen and memorable performances in major box office hits, according to the ShoWare Center promotion.

Since performing his first standup show as a teenager, Williams has been taking the comedy world by storm. He quickly developed a unique style of standup that combines articulate and sharp dialogue, rooted in conversations reflecting the American political landscape, according to the ShoWare Center promotion. By 1999, he had cultivated a loyal fan base and was performing on some of the most notable comedy stages across the nation.
