His 90 city tour will stop in Newport on Thursday, August 30th for one show only at 7:30 PM. This is a family-friendly show for all ages. Tickets go on sale Friday, April 13, at noon at:

Iglesias has been described as unbelievably witty, electrifying and as a talented performer who has the ability to consistently deliver a uniquely hilarious comedy experience. His high-octane show is a sure fire hit: a mixture of storytelling, parodies, characters and sound effects that bring all his personal experiences to life. Gabriel’s clean and animated comedy style has earned national crossover appeal making him popular among fans of all ages. His mass appeal has led to two hit Comedy Central specials and DVDs. The newest special, “I’m Not Fat.... I’m Fluffy” features the comedian’s perfect blend of spot on voice skills and an uncanny knack for hilarious storytelling. Iglesias is seen regularly on late-night talk shows including the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel, Conan O’Brien and the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson.
