WORCESTER – Bert Kreischer brings his comedy storytelling to the Hanover Theatre in Worcester for a single show on November 14, after adding new dates to his “Permission to Party” tour.
Once named the “Number One Partier in the Nation” by Rolling Stone in 1997 during his sixth year at Florida State University, Kreischer’s rise to comedy fame began in 2016 with his second comedy special, “Bert Kreischer: The Machine.” He named the special after the closing bit of the special, describing his college trip to Moscow and the nickname given to him by Russian gangsters.
Kreischer also stars in the 2023 film, “The Machine.” Mark Hamil (Luke Skywalker in “Star Wars”) co-stars as Kreischer’s father.
Since the release of his 2016 special on Showtime, Kreischer’s portfolio includes four comedy specials for Netflix. His last, “Lucky,” in 2025, filmed over six shows in his hometown of Tampa, Florida, sold out within 24 hours. Almost immediately upon release, the special climbed into Netflix’s top 10 most-watched shows list.
Kreischer also became a podcast star, appearing in “Bertcast,” “Something’s Burning,” and “2 Bears, 1 Cave,” with Tom Segura, growing his following to 16 million and earning over four billion impressions.
Tickets went on sale on April 10 and range from $55 to $150. Find tickets on the Hanover Theatre website and see his stand-up performance of “The Machine” below.
