Comedian Christopher Titus "The Angry Pursuit of Happiness" Tour

Comedian Christopher Titus takes audiences on the rollercoaster ride of life in his new LIVE Tour “The Angry Pursuit of Happiness”

Comedian Christopher Titus debuts his new Live Show “The Angry Pursuit of Happiness” May 10th in Madison, WI at the Barrymore Theatre.

Hollywood, CA March 25TH, 2014 - Coming off his fifth special “Voice In My Head,” where Titus detailed his biggest screw-ups, including his hilarious early days in entertainment aka his first job as Darth Vader for children’s birthday parties, Titus now brings to live audiences his newest one-man show, “The Angry Pursuit of Happiness”. In The Angry Pursuit of Happiness, Titus gives you the secret to life, the Pope and erectile dysfunction in 90 minutes taking audiences on a rollercoaster ride from the opening line through his closing bit about his own funeral. This show is an entirely new show from the special that aired on Comedy Central last October and is receiving countless standing ovations across the country and acclaim from critics calling him “one of the best, most real, insightful comics working today”.

Christopher Titus never lies. “The truth can be painful, but the truth is really funny,” says Titus. Employing what he’s labeled “hard funny” he has released five ninety-minute albums. He has four one-hour comedy specials currently running on Comedy Central, and his fifth special, “Voice In My Head” just aired in October of 2013. After years of experimentation with dark and personal storytelling, he debuted his first one-man show “Norman Rockwell is Bleeding” at the Hudson Theater in Los Angeles in 2004. It was from this performance that the dark comedy, “Titus,” was born on Fox. TV’s “Titus” earned him a Writer’s Guild nomination as well as an Emmy nomination, and Newsday called him “TV’s most original voice since Seinfeld. “Norman Rockwell is Bleeding” (released on CD in 2008) paved the way for Titus’ future comedy albums/specials “The Fifth Annual End of the World Tour” (2007), “Love is Evol” (2009), “Neverlution” (2011) and “The Voice in my Head” (2013).

Inspired by such greats as Woody Allen, Steve Martin, and Bill Cosby, who wrote, directed, produced and performed, Titus has sold ideas to NBC, ABC, FOX and Comedy Central. In 2013, Titus formed his own production company, Combustion World Industries, and produced his own comedy special “Voice In My Head.” His first film production will be “Special Unit,” which is about four disabled detectives. Titus describes it as “The Shield with handicapped people” and is planning for film production in Fall 2014. Fans can catch Titus weekly on his “never unbiased, always unbalanced” podcast “The Titus Podcast”.

Christopher Titus is raw, real and most of all, funny. His honesty about his own life gives a voice to the human experience of every person in the audience.
