Comedian and TV Talk Show Host Craig Ferguson Coming to Indiana

Some fun news for fans of stand-up comedy.  A comedy and TV talk show legend is coming back to Evansville. Craig Ferguson is bringing his 2023 The Fancy Rascal Tour to the Victory Theatre later this year.

Ferguson, of course, is a Scottish-American comedian, actor, writer and TV host. He's likely best known for hosting The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson on CBS. That show ran from 2005 through 2014 and won him a Peabody Award. He snagged that award for his interview with African archbishop Desmond Tutu.

In addition to a Peabody Award, Ferguson won two Daytime Emmy Awards for his work on Celebrity Name Game!

Celebrity Name Game ran from 2014 through 2017.
