Margaret Cho Extends 'Fresh Off The Bloat' Tour

Five time Grammy & Emmy nominated comedian Margaret Cho has announced brand new spring dates to her wildly popular "Fresh Off The Bloat" tour which launched last fall. Margaret was named one of Rolling Stone magazine's 50 Best Stand-Up Comics of All Time and has received rave reviews for the initial shows with the Chicago Tribune saying "Be it on-screen ("30 Rock," "Drop Dead Diva") or on stage, Margaret Cho has been one of the most exciting, unpredictable stand-up comics working for some time, and that hasn't changed in 2017. If anything, the Asian-American female comedian's voice has become more valuable than ever, given today's social climate, and Cho's material remains just as compelling, thanks in part to-and sometimes in spite of-her unapologetic delivery."

"Fresh Off The Bloat" is certainly her sickest stand-up comedy show to date. A pioneer amongst women in comedy, Margaret doesn't take anything for granted as she continues to tackle difficult subjects with sensitivity and her razor sharp insight with her takes on addiction, abuse, activism and Asianness. It's all about the politics of disgust and what is disgusting about politics. Aptly titled, "Fresh Off The Bloat," Margaret says, ""Fresh Off The Bloat" is my sickest show to date. My grandmother said "You look like bloated as if you've been found dead in a lake after several days of searching." Koreans are the most savage of all the Asians. My new show is all about being fresh off drugs and drinking and suicide and coming back to life - finally fished out of the river Styx. It's meta. It's magical. It's me."
