What happened: Leanne Morgan is bringing her “The Time of Our Lives Tour” to the Wagner Noël Performing Arts Center for two performances on July 30 and July 31 after strong ticket demand prompted organizers to add a second show. Both performances begin at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 5:30 p.m.

The big picture: Morgan has become one of the biggest breakout names in comedy and focuses heavily on marriage, motherhood, aging, Southern culture, and everyday life.  Originally from rural Tennessee, Morgan spent more than 25 years building her comedy career before breaking into the mainstream with her debut Netflix special, I’m Every Woman.

Morgan’s second Netflix special, Unspeakable Things, debuted at No. 1 worldwide in 2025 and later earned a Critics Choice Association nomination for Best Comedy Special along with a 2026 Gracie Award win. She has also released a bestselling memoir and stars in the Netflix sitcom Leanne, created alongside producer Chuck Lorre.

What’s next: Tickets are still available for both nights. Additional information is available through the Wagner Noël Performing Arts Center.
