The Dome sits at 400 20th St. in Virginia Beach.
The pair have shared stages for decades, a partnership that stretches back well before this current tour.
A Partnership Going Back Decades
Martin and Short have toured together since 2015, and the two have performed together on Saturday Night Live since the 1980s, as reported by The Daily Press.
The duo's history on stage and screen runs deeper still. They starred together in “Three Amigos!” and voiced Hotep and Huy in DreamWorks Animation's “The Prince of Egypt,” adding animated comedy to a resume that already spans film, television and live performance.
A Previous Hampton Roads Date Fell Through
Not every Hampton Roads appearance has gone off without a hitch. A 2025 date for “The Dukes of Funnytown!” in the region was canceled because Steve Martin caught COVID, the Pilot reported. Separately, a JamBase listing shows Steve Martin performing at The Dome by Rutter Mills on September 19, 2025, alongside Jeff Babko and Steep Canyon Rangers.
Whatever happened in 2025, the two comedy veterans are set to return to the Virginia Beach stage next spring with a show built around decades of shared history.
