THE LATE SHOW WITH STEPHEN COLBERT will premiere on Tuesday, Sept. 8(11:35 PM-12:37 AM, ET/PT). The show will be broadcast from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City. The new marquee is up now, and BroadwayWorld brings you a first look below!

A multi-talented and respected host, writer, producer, satirist and comedian, Colbert is well-known for his previous late night show, "The Colbert Report," which concluded on Friday, Dec. 18, 2014. The program received wide-spread critical acclaim and earned two Peabody Awards and 29 Emmy Award nominations, including two Emmy wins for Outstanding Variety Series (2013, 2014) and four Emmy wins for Outstanding Writing for a Variety, Music or Comedy Program (2008, 2010, 2013, 2014). Prior to that, Colbert spent eight years as a correspondent on Comedy Central's "The Daily Show" as an on-air personality and writer of news satire for the Emmy and Peabody Award-winning series.
