Randy Rainbow Hits The Pacific Northwest As Part Of His “Randy Rainbow For President Tour”

January 18, 2024• byMichael Strangeways

Beloved satirist and songbird RANDY RAINBOW has become a national sensations in the last decade, lampooning the idiots running amuck in the current political scene, particularly the Orange Menace known as Donald Trump. The openly gay singer became an Internet superstar with his music videos zapping the cavalcade of mediocrity that has infiltrated the Republican Party. His latest national live show tour, “Randy Rainbow For President” is all set to hit the Pacific Northwest starting February 1st with back to back stops in Spokane, Portland Oregon, Seattle and Bellingham Washington.

One of those stops is officially sold out while two others are close to sold out with only one of them having quite a few tickets still available for purchase…can you GUESS which one of those cities still has lots of availability?

CAN YOU???!??!?!?

Yes, it’s (not surprisingly) our neighbors to the East on the Conservative side of the mountains…Spokane has quite a few seats still left for Randy’s show at the lovely Fox Theatre. If you live in that neck of the woods (I’m sorry for your pain but it’s a little bit cheaper than the West side of the mountains at least!) you can snag Spokane tickets for Randy at: https://secure.foxtheaterspokane.org/802/993

For folks in Bellingham, you’re out of luck (but, if you’re determined, maybe they’ll have tickets at the door that night!)

Seattle folks can snatch one of the few remaining tickets for the February 3rd show at The Paramount at https://www.stgpresents.org/calendar/14479/randy-rainbow

Randy Rainbow is a four-time EMMY® and GRAMMY®-nominated American comedian, producer, actor, singer, writer, satirist, host, and New York Times best-selling author known for his popular web series, The Randy Rainbow Show. His debut memoir, Playing with Myself received rave reviews by such venerable outlets as The LA TIMES, which noted that Rainbow “vividly recollects the alienation so many LGBTQ+ youth experience.” Musical theater was an escape for Rainbow that ultimately helped catapult his career. His musical parodies and political spoofs have garnered him worldwide acclaim and four consecutive EMMY® nominations for Outstanding Short-Form Variety Series.

Rainbow (yes, that’s his real name) enjoys a star-studded fan base which regularly shares his work. Some notable admirers include Ryan Reynolds, Carol Burnett, John Legend, Mark Hamill, Hillary Clinton, Stephen Sondheim, Jane Lynch, Ana Navarro, Barry Manilow, Ben Stiller, Sarah Silverman, Rosie O’Donnell, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Steve Martin and Martin Short. As an actor, he has appeared onscreen as a featured guest star in the FX comedy/drama series Better Things, and on the New York stage as a lead in the Encores! series revival of Call Me Madam at New York City Center.

In 2019, TONY®, GRAMMY®, and EMMY®-winning composer and lyricist Marc Shaiman collaborated with Rainbow on his holiday EP, Hey Gurl, It’s Christmas!, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Comedy chart and #1 on the iTunes Holiday chart. His first full-length studio album, A Little Brains, A Little Talent, also debuted at #1 and earned Rainbow his first GRAMMY® nomination for Best Comedy Album in 2023. The album, released through Broadway Records, features duets with Patti LuPone, Tituss Burgess, Bernadette Peters, Josh Gad, and his first writing collaboration with EGOT recipient Alan Menken.

Touring the U.S. with his sold-out solo musical comedy concerts, the influencer and Internet sensation’s viral comedy videos have received hundreds of millions of views across all social media and digital platforms. His fresh take on politics and current events has led to interviews and profiles by The Washington Post (magazine cover story), CBS Sunday Morning, Jimmy Kimmel Live, The Hollywood Reporter, CNN, NPR, ABC News, OUT, People, and Entertainment Weekly.

Rainbow currently hosts The Randy Rainbow Podcast, through Sean Hayes and Hazy Mills Productions, and continues to take on the hottest topics as only he can. As the Washington Post noted, Randy Rainbow has found his spotlight through the Internet, emerging as a viral sensation who dispenses musical comedy salve for a divided nation.
