DENVER — Denver's Paramount Theatre is getting its own Jim Gaffigan residency.
Grammy Award-nominated comedian Jim Gaffigan has sold out eight consecutive shows at the downtown Denver theater.
The eight consecutive sold-out shows are a record for any performer in the 93-year history of the Paramount Theatre.
Part of Gaffigan's "Barely Alive Tour," the shows run from Tuesday through Sunday.
“I am so thrilled by the number of shows I’ll be doing in Denver. It has always been one of the greatest cities for comedy,” said Gaffigan.
“We are looking forward to Jim Gaffigan taking over Denver next week at Paramount Theatre,” said Brent Fedrizzi, Co-President & COO of AEG Presents Rocky Mountains. “Never has any comedian sold out eight performances at any venue in Denver! This is an amazing accomplishment, we couldn’t be more excited to celebrate with Mr. Gaffigan.”
