Comedian Seth Meyers Bringing Stand-Up Comedy Show To Nantucket

Comedian Seth Meyers, the former Saturday Night Live cast member and current host of NBC's "Late Night With Seth Meyers," will appear on Nantucket later this summer for two stand-up comedy performances at the Nantucket Performing Arts Center (NPAC) on North Water Street.

Both shows are scheduled for Tuesday, August 19, at 6:00 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., and ticket sales will open to the general public on Thursday, July 11, at 10:00 a.m.

“When we started Nantucket Performing Arts Center—which somehow feels like both five years and five minutes ago - we chose the name intentionally,” said NPAC executive director Drew Kowalkowski. “While our initial programming has been focused on theater, our vision is to present the full breadth of the performing arts to audiences on Nantucket, bringing world-class artists to the island while becoming a year-round resource for the island community. We’re proud to bring one of the most acclaimed voices in comedy to our intimate stage this summer.”

Meyers is an Emmy Award-winning writer, New York Times bestselling author, and host of “Late Night with Seth Meyers” since 2014. Meyers began his TV career with “Saturday Night Live” in 2001, where he was a cast member for 13 seasons. He served as head writer for nine seasons and “Weekend Update” anchor for eight. He has released two critically acclaimed stand-up specials to date, “Lobby Baby” (Netflix) and “Seth Meyers: Dad Man Walking” (HBO/Max). In all, Meyers has garnered 33 Emmy nominations for his work in television.

In addition to his onscreen success, Meyers is a New York Times bestselling author, having published his first picture book, “I’m Not Scared, You’re Scared,” in 2022. He currently co-hosts two podcasts: “Family Trips with the Meyers Brothers,” alongside his brother Josh Meyers, and “The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast,” featuring Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone.

Meyers performs stand-up to sold-out crowds across the country and co-headlines a monthly residency with John Oliver at the Beacon Theatre in New York.
