Calling all news junkies, lovers of a hot mic, and podcast fans!

NPR’s Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me! is coming to The Orpheum for one night only in September! During this LIVE event, host Peter Sagal and scorekeeper Alzo Slade lead a rotating panel of comedians, writers, listener contestants, and a surprise celebrity guest through a fast-paced review of the week’s news. 

You get a front row seat (or back row, depending on how quickly you buy a ticket!) to jokes, commentary, and conversations before the show is edited for broadcast —making you among the first listeners and offering a unique, behind-the-scenes experience.

Everybody needs a good laugh — so let loose and test your knowledge with today's funniest comedians at Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!
