Jerry Seinfeld will make a stop in Akron for an upcoming tour that finds the TV star reaching back to his roots as a stand-up comedian. He'll appear at the Akron Civic Theatre April 20 at 7 p.m.

Hailed as “the master stand-up comic of his generation” and “the best comedian of our time” in a Washington Post article by Tom Shales, Seinfeld has an uncanny ability to joke about the little things in life that relate to audiences everywhere.

Tickets go on sale Feb. 24 at 10 a.m., and prices are $77, $62, and $47. Tickets are available at the Akron Civic Theatre Box Office, by calling (330) 253-2488, online at www.akroncivic.com, or by calling TicketMaster at (800) 745-3000.
