After a brief hiatus, funnyman Chris Tucker makes his triumphant return to the stage as part of his Chris Tucker Live tour. Hailed as one of the funniest comics in the industry, Tucker returns to his roots and takes the Progress Energy Center's Mahaffey Theater stage on Friday, May 13, 2011, 8:00 pm for an evening of pure comedy and side splitting laughter.

Deemed box office "Gold", Tucker's impressive Film career includes one of the top grossing comedies of all time, Rush Hour 3, Rush Hour 2, as well as Friday, Dead Presidents and Money Talks and the original Rush Hour (which has grossed $250 million worldwide).
