According to The Hollywood Reporter, Bil Maher, host of HBO's 'Real Time with Bill Maher' is set to appear at Las Vegas' Palms Casino Resort beginning this March. The comedian will perform at the Palms 2,500-seat Pearl theater beginning March 23-24, and continuing June 8-9, September 6-7 and November 2-3. Tickets will go on sale Jan. 11 at noon.
Maher is known for his political satire and sociopolitical commentary, which targets a wide swath of topics including religion, politics, bureaucracies of many kinds, political correctness, the mass media, greed among people and persons in positions of high political and social power.
In 2003, Maher became the host, co-producer and co-writer of Real Time with Bill Maher, a weekly hour-long political comedy talk show on the cable television network HBO. As with his previous show, Politically Incorrect, Maher begins Real Time with a comic opening monologue based upon current events and other topical issues. He proceeds to a one-on-one interview with a guest, either in-studio or via satellite. Following the interview, Maher sits with three panelists, usually consisting of pundits, authors, activists and journalists, for a discussion of the week's events. In the segment "New Rules" at the end of each show, Maher delivers a humorous editorial on popular culture and American politics.Videos
