[TO PURCHASE TICKETS CLICK HERE](https://www.arlingtondrafthouse.com/events/124386) Emmy, Grammy, and NAACP Image Award winner **Tiffany Haddish** has established herself as one of the most sought-after comedic actresses and performers worldwide. She is a multifaceted artist who, in addition to acting, sings and dances. Haddish is perhaps best known for her breakout role as the scene-stealing “Dina” in the smash hit comedy *Girls Trip.* She will soon reprise her role in the highly anticipated sequel *Girls Trip 2*, opposite Jada Pinkett Smith, Queen Latifah, and Regina Hall. This November, Haddish will be seen in Peacock’s unscripted series *Tiffany Haddish Goes Off*, which chronicles Haddish’s 4-week long girls’ trip in Africa with her three best friends. She will also star in Lil Rel Howery’s feature *Haunted Heist*, which premiered at the 2025 Fantastic Fest; Carlo Bernard’s upcoming action-thriller, *The Deputy*, alongside William H. Macy, Duke Nicholson, and Julia Fox; Adam Rifkin’s psychedelic stoner comedy, *Toad,* alongside James Franco, Christopher Meloni, and Craig Robinson; THE GIRL IN THE RIVER, alongside Maggie Grace, Ralph Macchio, and Devon Sawa; and crime-thriller MOTION. Haddish is a *New York Times* bestselling author of the memoir *The Last Black Unicorn* and a children’s book author of *Layla, The Last Black Unicorn.* The companion audiobook to her memoir, which she narrated, was nominated for a 2019 Grammy Award for Spoken Word Album. Her latest book, a collection of essays entitled, *I Curse You with Joy*, was released in May 2024. Shortly after, Haddish teamed up with legendary songwriter Diane Warren to release her empowering single, “Woman Up.” Previously, Haddish executive produced VICE TV’s series *Black Comedy in America* and made a cameo in *Bad Boys: Ride or Die*, opposite Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, which made almost $400 million at the box office. She can also be seen starring as Detective Danner in Apple TV+’s critically acclaimed murder mystery series, *The Afterparty*; in Disney’s *Haunted Mansion*; MGM’s *Landscape With Invisible Hand,* an adaption of MT Anderson’s futuristic sci-fi novel; and *Back on the Strip*. Prior to this, she starred in Lionsgate’s *The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent* opposite Nicholas Cage and Universal’s *Easter Sunday.* Haddish also voiced the role of ‘Tuca’ in Adult Swim’s *Tuca & Bertie* and the role of Aisha in Hulu’s *Solar Opposites*. Other recent credits include starring opposite Oscar Isaac in the critically acclaimed Paul Schrader film *The Card Counter; On the Count of Three,* alongside Jerrod Carmichael; and Netflix’s critically acclaimed *Bad Trip*, starring alongside Eric Andre and Lil Rel Howery. Haddish’s projects in development include *Down Undercover*, *Mystery Girl*, *Homecoming Queen* and *The Untitled Flo Jo Biopic.* Her other film and television work includes *Here Today, Like A Boss, The Kitchen, Between Two Ferns: The Movie*, *The Spongebob Squarepants Movie: Sponge on the Run, The Secret Life of Pets 2, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, The Angry Birds Movie 2, Night School, Nobody’s Fool, The Oath,* hosting both *Kids Say the Darndest Things* and *TBS’ Friday Night Vibes, Self-Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam CJ Walker, The Last O.G.* and *The Carmichael Show*. Haddish also served as host and executive producer of the Emmy-nominated Netflix stand-up comedy series *Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready.* The series of half-hour comedy specials featuring her friends and long-time comedic collaborators ran for two seasons. Her Emmy-nominated and Grammy-winning comedy special, *Tiffany Haddish: Black Mitzvah*, debuted on Netflix in December 2019. Haddish became the second black woman ever to win a Grammy for “Outstanding Comedy Album” and the first since Whoopi Goldberg won in 1986. Her first stand-up special, *Tiffany Haddish: She Ready! From the Hood to Hollywood* was released on Showtime in August 2017. Just three months after the special’s release, Haddish made history by becoming the first black female stand-up comedian to host *Saturday Night Live,* which earned her the 2018 Emmy Award for “Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series.” In June 2018, Haddish took the reins as the host of the *MTV Movie and TV Awards*, a role that earned her critical acclaim and significant ratings boost for MTV. Haddish’s journey and life experiences have inspired her comedy and sense of humor both on and off the stage. She has been very candid about her experiences growing up in foster care in South Central Los Angeles. Her excessive talking and imaginary friends prompted her flustered social worker to steer her into stand-up comedy. She enrolled in the Laugh Factory’s Comedy Camp, a place for at-risk and underprivileged children to transform negative energy into something positive. The experience was just the beginning of her comedy career. Haddish recently founded The She Ready Foundation to help and support foster kids in need. In 2021, The She Ready Foundation launched an Internship Program with Ready To Succeed for foster youth in the SoCal area. 7:00pm Show - Admission is 21 and Over Unless Accompanied By a Parent 9:30pm Show - 21 and Older Only, no exceptions \*PLEASE PLAN AHEAD\* ***There is to be absolutely NO RECORDING or use of cell phones during the performance.

Meet in the parking lot of the Handy Bikes Service Center. At the start of each ride, we'll go over introductions to have a sense of participants' cycling experience. Over the course of our rides, we'll address the following: group riding dynamics; safety (ABC check & trail hazards); gear shifting; hill climbing; audible and hand communication within the group, with other trail users, and automobile drivers; what to bring on each ride; etc... Bring your questions, water & a snack. When it starts getting dark earlier, we'll need lights as well. Helmets a MUST. If you can, and especially if you've had issues with your bike, come a bit early to have it looked at ahead of the ride. PS - all levels are welcome to join, however, be mindful that if you are an experienced rider, please be prepared to ride at the pace of the newest rider in the group. Each week, depending on who's in attendance, and participants' riding ability/comfort level, we may do skills practice as a group in the parking lot or at the west end of Wheeler Ave. Once everyone is comfortable, we'll go for a ride on local trails and neighborhood streets and finish back at the shop. Happy Pedaling !! \~Maya
