Marlon Wayans is scheduled to perform at MGM Springfield's ARIA Ballroom on Saturday, November 14, at 8 p.m.
The date still gets introduced through White Chicks and the first Scary Movie films, and through a set he has been describing as more personal than the parody hits. WWLP reported the Saturday booking.
Three Listed Prices
MassLive lists standard admission at $76.14, preferred seating at $86.39 and official platinum tickets at $115.95.
Preferred sits $10.25 above standard. Platinum is another $29.56 past preferred, $39.81 over the lowest price on that list.
The Family Franchise
MassLive identifies the White Chicks role as Marcus Copeland, opposite his brother Shawn Wayans, in Columbia Pictures' 2004 comedy.
MGM Springfield says Keenen wrote and directed Scary Movie and Scary Movie 2, while Marlon and Shawn wrote and starred in both. The venue's page also says the three brothers recently completed production on Scary Movie 6.
Wayans told MassLive that horror and comedy share the same rhythm and the same kind of excitement. The ARIA booking is still being sold, in part, on that overlap.
A Streaming No. 1
MGM Springfield's page says his comedy special Good Grief premiered on Amazon Prime Video in June 2024 and hit No. 1 on the platform in its first week.
The same listing states that his films have grossed $1.14 billion in domestic box office and nearly $1.8 billion worldwide.
What The Road Is For
He told MassLive he tries to go a little deeper with each special or tour and to be a little more vulnerable, with the aim of making the work more personal.
"It makes you sharper. You know what works. It's instantaneous," he said of touring. Saturday's version of that test is 8 p.m. in the ARIA Ballroom.
