Randy Rainbow – the 3x Emmy-nominated satirist, entertainer and star of the YouTube series “The Randy Rainbow Show” will let fans see the world through his pink-rimmed glasses on his Live Nation produced book tour for his new memoir, PLAYING WITH MYSELF (St. Martin’s Press – on sale April 19). Accompanied by special guests, Randy Rainbow presents a lively evening of conversation as he takes guests through his life ― the highs, the lows, the lipstick, and the show tunes. Every ticket includes a signed copy of Randy’s book, Playing With Myself.
Presales for Randy’s Book Tour begin Tuesday, March 8 at 10am local. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, March 11th at 10am local time on RandyRainbow.com. The multi-city tour will launch in New York and includes stops in Washington, DC; Los Angeles, CA; San Francisco, CA; Chicago, IL; and Philadelphia, PA.
Touring the U.S. to sold-out crowds, the influencer and Internet sensation’s viral comedy videos have received hundreds of millions of views across all social media and digital platforms. His fresh take on politics and current events has led to interviews and profiles by The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Hollywood Reporter, CNN, NPR, ABC News, OUT, People, and Entertainment Weekly, among others.
Randy’s memoir is a firsthand account of the journey that led Randy Rainbow from his childhood as the over-imaginative, often misunderstood little boy who carried a purse in the second grade to his first job on Broadway as the host at Hooters and on to the creation of his trademark comedy character. As Randy has said, “There’s so much fake news out there about me. I can’t wait to set the record straight and finally give people a peek behind the green screen.” And set the record straight he does. His new book answers the question: “Can an introverted musical theatre nerd with a MacBook and a dream save the world, one show tune at a time?”
St. Martin’s Press is a division of Macmillan Publishers.
Randy Rainbow is represented by Creative Artists Agency (CAA), which developed and will oversee the book tour.
