About the Performer
Brad Williams is one of the most in-demand stand-up comedians working today. Pound for pound — and he’d be the first to make that joke — Williams is widely regarded as one of the funniest performers on the road. Born with achondroplasia (a form of dwarfism), Brad has turned his unique perspective on life into a comedy career that has taken him around the world and into the hearts of millions of fans.
Williams started doing stand-up as a teenager and has been touring successfully ever since, routinely selling out prestigious venues across the country. His stand-up specials include Fun Size on Showtime, Daddy Issues, and most recently The Degenerates on Netflix. The late Robin Williams once called him “Prozac with a head.”
His Tall Tales Tour is his latest live show — a high-energy, no-holds-barred hour of comedy that covers disability, relationships, race, and everything in between. Audiences consistently leave on their feet.

About the Venue
The Carolina Theatre of Durham is one of the Triangle’s most beloved and historic entertainment venues. Built in 1926, the theatre has been beautifully restored and serves as a cultural anchor in downtown Durham. Fletcher Hall — the main performance space — seats approximately 1,000 guests and features excellent acoustics, a classic proscenium stage, and a warm, intimate atmosphere.
The venue is located in the heart of downtown Durham, surrounded by some of the city’s best restaurants, bars, and coffee shops. Street parking and nearby garages are available. The Carolina Theatre is easily accessible from I-85 and US-15/501. The building itself is a stunning piece of architecture and adds to the overall experience of attending a show here.
What to Expect
Brad Williams delivers a high-energy, crowd-pleasing stand-up set that covers everything from his personal life to broader social observations. His comedy is bold, self-aware, and relentlessly funny. He’s known for his ability to tackle sensitive topics — disability, race, relationships — with a disarming charm that wins over every crowd.
This is a solo headlining show. Expect approximately 75–90 minutes of non-stop laughs, with Williams working the stage with the kind of confidence and charisma that comes from decades of live performance. Standing ovations are common at his shows.
