Eddie Izzard, double Emmy-Award-winning comedian, Tony-nominated actor and iconoclastic master of surreal bollocks, is hitting the road again with a new world tour and one-man show, fittingly titled “SEXIE.” This new tour, his first in nearly three years, brings Eddie to theatres in sixteen North American cities, beginning August 29 in Vancouver, Canada and climaxing in Philadelphia, Pa., on November 8. Venerated and adored by fans and critics alike for his lightning quick wit, intelligence and sheer raw talent, Izzard is embarking up on the largest tour of his highly successful career to date. In cities such as San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia and New York, Izzard initially penetrated the American psyche with his one-man show “Dress to Kill” on HBO, which garnered three Emmy nominations and won two, and is now available on DVD for the first time on these shores. His last tour, “Circle,” was the hottest ticket in town in the nine cities where Izzard performed, culminating with a seven-night, sold-out engagement at New York's Town Hall. In between tours, Izzard has been earning rave reviews for his acting talent on the big screen and most recently on Broadway, where he is starring in “A Day in the Death of Joe Egg,” for which he just received a Tony nomnation for “Best Leading Actor in a Play.”
