A comedian who holds the record for the shortest tenure in Saturday Night Live history will take the stage at the Orlando Kia Center this autumn.
On Friday, September 27, Shane Gillis will perform at the Kia Center, which is located at 4oo W Church Street in downtown Orlando. Doors open at 6 p.m., with the show starting at 7 p.m.
Known for his unapologetic and boundary-pushing humor, Gillis was named one of Just for Laughs’ “New Faces” at their yearly comedy festival in Montreal. He claimed the title of “Philly’s Phunniest” in 2016, a year after finishing third.
In 2019, Gillis joined Saturday Night Live as a featured cast member. Five days after he was brought on, and without ever appearing in a show, NBC released him for comments he made in a podcast a year prior.
In the years that have followed, Gillis has produced several successful projects, including multiple standup specials and “Gilly and Keeves,” a collection of comedy sketches that he co-created with comedian John McKeever.
Additionally, Gillis is one-half of the “Matt and Shane’s Secret Podcast” with friend and fellow comedian Matt McCusker, and he is a frequent guest on “The Joe Rogan Experience.”
Earlier this month, Netflix released the second season of Tires, a series starring Gillis that he also co-created.
