Legendary comedians Steve Martin and Martin Short will bring their “The Dukes of Funnytown!” tour to Pittsburgh this year. Shows are scheduled for Nov. 21 and 22 at the Benedum Center in Downtown Pittsburgh.
The show will also feature jazz pianist Steve Babko and bluegrass band The Steep Canyon Rangers.
Martin and Short have been longtime friends and collaborators since they first appeared together in 1986’s “Three Amigos!” The pair of funny men had a recent resurgence in popularity with their much-lauded comedy series “Only Murders in the Building,” which premiered on Hulu in 2021 and has run for four seasons.
The duo have toured together previously — starting in 2015 with their show “A Very Stupid Conversation” — and released a special on Netflix in 2018 titled “An Evening You Will Forget for the Rest of Your Life.” It was nominated for four Emmy Awards.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. Friday at trustarts.org.
