Wanda Sykes Tickets

Wanda Sykes is one of the most beloved stand-up comedians and actors in the world. Born in Virginia, she began her comedy career while working as a procurement officer at the National Security Agency. After making a name for herself in smaller comedy clubs, she gained broader recognition when she appeared on HBO's "The Chris Rock Show" from 1997 to 1999. In 2001, she won an Emmy Award for her writing on "The Chris Rock Show". Sykes has gone on to become a successful stand-up comedian with numerous albums and tours under her belt. She has released four full-length albums: 2000's Wanda Does It; 2002's Sick and Tired; 2004's Tongue Untied; and 2009's I'ma Be Me. In 2009, she also started her own eponymously named tour which featured many of her best stand-up routines from over the years. Her stand-up specials have also been shown multiple times on HBO, Comedy Central, and Netflix. Throughout her long career, Sykes has used her position as an influential figure in the entertainment industry to advocate for social justice issues such as LGBT rights and racial equality. In 2008, she became the first African American woman to be honored with a Comedian of the Year award at Backstage Magazine’s Bistro Awards Gala. She was awarded this honor due to her hard work in performing politically charged material throughout her career. In addition to continuing to perform occasionally onstage, Sykes is now focused more on acting roles like those on Black-ish alongside Tracee Ellis Ross or setting up production deals with networks like ABC (which produced The Other Two starring Drew Tarver). Having been involved in comedy for 20+ years, Wanda Sykes continues to be a powerful force in both activism and entertainment alike.
