Michael Showalter Announces 2011 Tour Dates

Comedian Michael Showalter is readying an early 2011 tour in promotion of his upcoming book Mr. Funny Pants. Not many details—like the plot or fiction/nonfiction classification—have been released about the book just yet, but we do know it hits shelves Feb. 24 and is available for pre-order on Amazon now.

“Come visit me for an evening of storytelling; joke telling; and of course, graphic sexual imagery,” Showalter says on his website.
