GLOBAL COMIC: Vir Das is on stage at State Theatre New Jersey on April 12.
State Theatre New Jersey presents Vir Das: Mind Fool Tour on Saturday, April 12 at 8 p.m. Tickets range from $49-$199.
Comedian and Actor Vir Das’ fourth and most recent Netflix comedy special earned Das a 2023 International Emmy nomination for “Best Comedy,” his second overall. His previous Netflix special Vir Das: For India was nominated for a 2021 International Emmy for “Best Comedy” as well.
Landing, which Das also directed, is a story about freedom, foolishness, the West, the East, the notion of home, and what it means to be a citizen of one nation in a global world. The special offers food for thought for both current citizens of India, Indian-American children of immigrants, and even those with no ties to India. Das has performed the show more than 180 times in countries across the globe including a successful run at The Edinburgh Fringe Festival. more
