Desert Drive
After performing in Tucson on Thursday evening, Craig Ferguson heads to Chandler, Arizona near Phoenix for the nest stop on his west coast Live Comedy Tour.  Friday’s show in Chandler is nearly sold out, so if you’re planning on going, get those tickets now!  The same is true for Craig’s show in Napa, with a small selection of balcony seats left.

Craig in the News

When Craig goes on tour, he is often interviewed by local media along the way. Ahead of this week’s shows, he spoke to the Arizona Republic and the San Luis Obispo Tribune. He is also mentioned in Scotland’s Daily Record, anticipating the Scotland-based episodes of the Late Late Show in May.


Ted is Ready
Comedian Ted Alexandro will be opening for Craig this week. He tweeted:

Psyched to begin my run with @CraigyFerg tonight in Tucson, AZ. http://www.tedalexandro.com

A Dirk Weems Movie
Only Ewan McGregor is capable of portraying former footballer Dirk Weems on film, or so he thinks in this episode of ESPN UK.

Tonight’s Guests
Thursday on the Late Late Show, Craig welcomes actress Kelly Preston and author Joel Stein.  Stein tweeted:

Did 1st talkshow appearance ever on 2nite’s @CraigyFerg for my book. Unsure if I stole this $50 in quarters from a bit. http://ow.ly/i/zDMl

On Friday, Craig chats with actress Emily Deschanel and actor Jerry Ferrara.

Guest Update

Two new bonus shows!  Next week while Craig continues his west coast tour, there will only be three re-run episodes instead of the five that had been expected.  We’ll see encore shows Monday through Wednesday but because the May television ratings “sweeps” period begins on Thursday, April 26th, we’ll be treated to all-new, freeze-dried episodes taped just before Craig hit the road.  On Thursday the 26th, we’ll see actress Toni Collette and astronaut Mike Massimino.  And on Friday the 27th, Craig talks with actor Patton Oswalt and actress Phoebe Tonkin.  You can see the most up-to-date listings on our Guests page.
