An Evening With Fran Lebowitz: A Night of Wit and Insight

Get ready for an unforgettable night of wit and wisdom as An Evening with Fran Lebowitz brings one of the most insightful social commentators of our time to the Balboa Theatre. Known for her sharp humor and biting social critiques, Fran Lebowitz is a true icon of cultural satire.

Fran Lebowitz: A Style Icon and Humorist

Fran’s trademark style—quick-witted, opinionated, and unapologetically bold—has made her essays and interviews legendary. She delivers her takes on everything from modern society to personal quirks, with topics like tourists, baggage claims, and children speaking French all fair game for her sharp tongue.

The New York Times Book Review hails her as an “important humorist in the classic tradition,” while Vanity Fair honored her place in its International Best Dressed List Hall of Fame.

What to Expect

This evening promises a candid look at the world through Fran’s unique lens. Her quips are as memorable as her fashion, with lines like, “Spilling your guts is exactly as charming as it sounds,” and, “Success didn’t spoil me; I’ve always been insufferable,” showcasing her unmatched ability to turn a phrase.

See you there!

The event will take place at the Balboa Theatre, located at 868 Fourth Avenue, San Diego. Doors open at 7 PM, and the event starts at 7:30 PM.

Reserved seating tickets are available, with prices ranging from $52.50 to $78.90. Snag your spot here.

UCSD students can access a limited number of free tickets by emailing artpower@ucsd.edu.

Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to her work, An Evening with Fran Lebowitz offers a rare opportunity to experience her unmatched wit live. With her cutting observations and unparalleled humor, this is a night you won’t forget.
