Entertainment, entertainment | review: tina fey and amy poehler return to chicago stages after 30 years, and it’s all charm.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler launch their "Restless Leg Tour"...

NBC/NBCU Photo Bank/NBCUniversal via

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler launch their "Restless Leg Tour" this weekend in Rosemont and at the Chicago Theatre.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler launch their "Restless Leg Tour"...

What do you call what Tina Fey and Amy Poehler did at the Rosemont Theatre Friday night?

Vaudeville? A 100-minute comedy hang? A sweet, loosely organized catch-up between Chicago-bred comics and their audience? A live dual portrait of old friends? Whatever you call it, they’re doing it all weekend, next in three sold-out shows at the Chicago Theatre, and if you couldn’t pull the trigger on the pricey tickets, or simply find a ticket before resell pirates began demanding cretinous, Taylor Swift-ish prices, I hate to say … Sometimes charm, authenticity and a distinct lack of a rigidly-executed show is enough.

Sounds like a backhanded compliment, but I promise: It’s all compliment. Their “Restless Leg Tour,” which is making a tentative tiptoe into a handful of cities this spring, presumably as a test run for grander plans, is a victory lap and reminder of how comfortably Fey and Poehler ping off each other. To the song “For Good” from “Wicked,” Fey sang to Poehler: “I do believe you make me slightly better.” And Poehler sang to Fey: “We are work friends and we see each other at work.” They would have done the actual song, Fey said, but they would have had to pay for rights, negating the point of the tour.

The beauty was in the casualness, the intimacy they somehow achieved through the touches they can’t control: Poehler’s openhearted cackle; Fey’s dyspeptic side-eye. Poehler did a terrible impression of Richard Dreyfuss in “Jaws” and gave a shoutout to Gen-X (“We remember people!”). Fey, wearing a T-shirt reading “Mother,” said being a mother was like being the guy controlling Kermit the Frog: “If you’re doing your job right, nobody should notice and you’re just a filthy hippy sitting on a dirt floor.” They referred to each other as basically colleagues. “Common law comedy wives.” “Work husbands.” They relayed this so often you know there’s a truth there and a bond that transcends it.

Whatever poignancy they generate, it lands doubly here.

They don’t know exactly when they met, but they know it was about 30 years ago in Chicago. After opening the Rosemont show in knockoff Golden Globe glitter dresses, they climbed into ’90s wigs and clothes and danced through a recounting of their Chicago years: Before a backdrop of the Buckingham Fountain, they talked about both taking Second City classes, both performing with the then-Improv Olympic and both working miserable jobs on the side. Fey, who lived in Rogers Park, worked at the front desk at the YMCA in Evanston, dodging the harassment of its residents. Poehler, who waitressed in scores of restaurants, also worked the phones for Steppenwolf, soliciting donors to donate more.

Since they couldn’t recall their first meeting, they used improv to recreate it. They asked the audience for prompts, and took them. “You had brown hair and I had blond hair,” Poehler said, “and we all know that’s the only way women can be friends.”

Again, I have to ask, what should you call all this?

Both did stand-up — and as jarring as it is to see them slipping into the familiar rhythms of the seasoned road comic (Fey used her set to mock the format), they also sort of killed. In their gowns, they slipped into award-show mockery. Fey: “Ben Affleck is not here tonight. He’s busy slamming car doors behind J Lo.” Poehler: “Chicago, home of Central Standard Time.” They rolled out on office chairs from opposite ends of the stage and, to a roaring audience, did a new “Weekend Update” segment, with guest star. (I won’t spoil the surprise, but it’s good.) At the end, in pajamas, curled into large chairs, they wound down the night with reminiscing and fielded questions from the audience.

If we have to give a name to this, call it Live Charm.

They took the idea for the tour, they’ve told talk shows, from Steve Martin and Martin Short, who have paraded their friendship in a similar show for years. (Indeed, Martin and Martin return to the Chicago Theatre in June.) It’s not a new idea. Hugh Jackman’s arena shows, which play like pleasant old-school showbiz reviews, deliver a bit of comedy, song, dancing, storytelling. But the genre only works when the performer is genuine, self-deflating and, most importantly, their fame is incidental. They were you once, in an audience, and they show delight in your delight.

As Poehler said, way back when, she froze on her bike riding through another Chicago winter, but “it was a magical time when you could make up a show on the spot — a tradition we continue to this day!”

Why you need to see Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s ‘Restless Leg tour’ coming to Cleveland’s Playhouse Square

C LEVELAND, Ohio – If you saw the “Barbie” movie, Beyonce, Taylor Swift or “SIX the Musical” this summer, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler in Cleveland should be on your calendar. This is the “Eras Tour” for theater geeks, soccer moms and anyone looking for a night out filled with laughs.

I saw the comedy duo the way they were intended to be seen: live on a Saturday night. I will also be in the audience when their “Restless Leg” tour opens at Playhouse Square’s State Theatre on Sept. 21 for a three-day run.

And for me, a 26-year-old who used to dream of hosting “Saturday Night Live’s” Weekend Update, seeing my idols on stage in Chicago in May felt like therapy.

Watching “Saturday Night Live” as an overweight, nerdy middle school girl growing up on the South Side of Cleveland set something on fire inside of me. I saw something in Tina Fey and Amy Poehler that I had never seen before; women being weird, loud, clever and having fun while being loved for it, for the most part.

They’ve had their fair share of critics. But what successful woman hasn’t?

They led me down a long path lined with other women to look up to: Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Kristen Wiig, Gilda Radner, Carol Burnett, Laraine Newman and more.

It’s no surprise that the Fey/Poehler show is just as witty and ridiculous as some of their most famous impressions, characters and sketches they wrote. They don’t advertise their Mom Jeans or the Woomba. And “Sarah Palin” and “Hilary Clinton” did not address the audience. Instead, the award-winning actresses captivated the crowd with an easy-going show that tries to explain how they became friends.

Each night of their tour, a different celebrity guest has made an appearance during their “Weekend Update” segment. In Chicago, Fred Armisen wheeled out in an office chair and gave the audience a rundown on different accents you hear throughout the city.

Each actress gave a concise stand-up set that had people in the row next to me literally slapping their knees. Poehler poked fun at her times waiting tables while waiting to make it big. Fey joked about the price of menstrual products, yelling “P****” expensive, y’all!” to the rafters of the Chicago Theater.

There were costume changes, music, dancing, a Q&A section and, of course, improv.

If you didn’t know, Fey and Poehler got their start in Chicago while performing at the Improv Olympic, now the iO Theater, and Second City. The duo are not sure when they officially met but they were sure it was during an improv class.

When I was in high school, my parents surprised me with tickets to a Second City show while in town visiting colleges. I wore a blazer, because that’s what Tina Fey and Amy Poehler wore while hosting “Weekend Update,” and had the time of my life imagining my heroes strolling up the steps to enter the theater.

When I moved to the city for college, I started taking improv classes one week after moving into my dorm. There, I found other women from different backgrounds who wanted the same thing as me; friends and a fun creative outlet.

And although I didn’t end up at 30 Rock, I wouldn’t be a writer without seeing Tina Fey and Amy Poehler do it first.

The “Restless Leg” tour isn’t just a comedy show. Fey and Poehler’s tour is an inclusive, vaudeville-style celebration of friendship and empowerment.

Tina Fey & Amy Poehler perform at 8 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 21, 8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 22, and 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 23, and 5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 24, at Playhouse Square’s KeyBank State Theatre. The show’s are sold out but a limited number of VIP tickets are available for $436.50 via playhousesquare.com.

Tickets are also available on the secondary market on various ticket-selling sites.

Poehler, 51, and Fey, 52, met while performing in the Chicago improv scene in the '90s before they reunited in the early 2000s as "Saturday Night Live" cast members. Since then, they've made appearances in films together including "Mean Girls," "Baby Mama," "Sisters" and "Wine Country", and co-hosted the Golden Globes four times together. 

 "There's been many times where I feel like Tina was the only other person I could talk to about being the star and producer and writer of your own television show on NBC," Poehler previously told USA TODAY .

“If this tour goes right, we can finally end this friendship,” Poehler and Fey said in a joint statement provided to TheWrap.

The pair met in Chicago through their improv comedy work in the 1990s. Their careers continued to grow together from there. They became the first female co-anchors on the “Weekend Update” desk for “Saturday Night Live” – and memorably revisited that dynamic while hosting the Golden Globes for four years. They have also appeared together in comedies like the 2004 film “Mean Girls,” “Baby Mama” in 2008 and “Sisters” in 2015.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are hitting the road.

The famed duo has announced their first-ever live tour together, comically titled The Restless Leg Tour. It will feature a limited run of shows this spring, with the Saturday Night Live vets sharing stories and jokes rooted in their 30 years of friendship.

“If this tour goes right, we can finally end this friendship!” the pair joked in a joint statement.

Poehler and Fey, who have each built bona fide comedic empires across TV, books and film, are the latest comedy forces to head out on the road, looking to parlay their comedic timing and chemistry into another revenue stream. Samantha Bee is among the others, announcing her plans late last year to segue from TV to stage with a live tour .

Tina Fey Talks Being on Tour with Amy Poehler: "We're Having So Much Fun"

"It's like a paid mom's vacation away," Mean Girls'  Fey told her former "Weekend Update" co-anchor Jimmy Fallon, providing a very funny update on her Restless Leg Tour with Amy Poehler. 

tina and amy tour review

Former Saturday Night Live  cast member  Tina Fey  reunited with her former " Weekend Update " co-anchor Jimmy Fallon on January 10, paying a visit to The Tonight Show  Starring Jimmy Fallon  to talk about the 2024  Mean Girls  musical adaptation. During their catchup session, Fallon asked about Fey's current comedy tour with their former coworker and friend Amy Poehler.

How to Watch

Watch The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon  on NBC weeknights at 11:35/10:35c and next day on Peacock . 

"We're having so much fun," Fey told Fallon of her Restless Leg Tour   with Poehler, which kicked off in 2023. "Because, basically, it's like a paid moms vacation away. We go on a plane, we go someplace, we go to a nice hotel—and all we do is mom stuff all day. It's like: 'You know what? I've heard there's a wonderful museum here.'"

They'll often enjoy "a nice brunch" before hitting the stage, too. "It's exactly like whatever Chappelle and Rock are up to on the road," Fey joked.

"And then after the show, I'll be like, 'I don't want to get a drink, do you?' And she's like, 'I don't either. Good night.' And then we go to bed, and we're so happy," Fey said with clear delight.

Restless Leg Tour: What is the Tina Fey and Amy Poehler show about?

So what can people expect at a  Restless Leg Tour  show? 

Stories, banter, and more, Fey told Fallon. "It's a lot of different things—there's joke-jokes, and question-and-answer, and improv." Fey and Poehler have certainly had the practice onstage: Even before they both joined the  SNL  cast, the two wrote and performed comedy in Second City's touring company in the 1990s. 

"How are the audiences?" Fallon asked. 

Great, Fey says. "A lot of times, it's Gen X women, like us," she added.

"Sometimes, we do a 4:00 p.m. show, and, like, those are our people. They are the best audiences: They are there. They are sober. They are ready to laugh. They have already looked at Waze for how long it's going to take to get home. They have, like, a little bag from the HomeGoods they hit on the way to see us," Fey joked. "But they really are awesome."

As for the rowdiest city, that honor goes to Fey's hometown. 

"We played Philly right before Christmas. And guess what—what a surprise, right?—Philly was the rowdiest of any American city," Fey told Fallon.

"We were at The Met, which was beautiful. But in this beautiful balcony, there was what I assume was a bachelorette party, or maybe just a gang, I don't know," Fey said. "And they just kept yelling at the stage a lot." When security finally came to kick them out, "they were like, 'Yeah. Yeah, you're right. We overshot it.' Like, they knew."

This path of conversation led to a very funny exchange that found Fey trying, once again, to teach Fallon how to talk in a Philly accent. "You can't do it, bro," Fey told Fallon.

Tina Fey (L) and Amy Poehler present onstage at an awards show together.

We want to go to there.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s ‘Restless Leg Tour’ is picking back up on Thursday, Sept. 21 for a 22-show leg that will send the comedic duo all over North America up until mid-January 2024.

“When you think about the ways people could be spending their money right now, it’s gratifying and heartwarming that people are like, ‘Yes, that’s the night out that we want,’” Fey told  The Hollywood Reporter .

“Because, for me, I don’t want to go to anything. I never want to go out.”

However, when you see these last-minute prices to catch the former Weekend Update anchors live, you just may want to whip out your wallet and head to their live show.

At the time of publication, our team found some tickets going for as low as $33 before fees on Vivid Seats.

Not a bad price to catch a show that USA Today says includes “video montages of their greatest hits, improv; stand-up; and, most rewarding, a Q&A session staged on two sofa chairs with Fey and Poehler in their pajamas.”

Other shows on the run have seats starting anywhere from $50 to $190 before fees.

Want to find out how much tickets cost at the show closest to you?

Keep reading, “30 Rock” fans and “Parks and Rec” devotees.

We’ve got everything you need to know and more below.

All prices listed above are subject to fluctuation.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler 2023 tour schedule

A complete calendar of all upcoming Tina Fey and Amy Poehler tour dates, venues and links to the cheapest tickets available can be found below.

(Note: The New York Post confirmed all above prices at the publication time. All prices are in US dollars, subject to fluctuation and include additional fees at checkout .)

Vivid Seats is a verified secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand. 

They offer a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and your tickets will be delivered prior to the event.

About the ‘Restless Leg Tour’

Each and every show on the ‘Restless Leg Tour’ is unique for the veteran improvisers.

“If you come to a show more than once, you are going to see a different show the second time,” Poehler shared with  The Hollywood Reporter .

“We’re always working on new material. We want to make sure that people feel like the show’s for them. But there are some things that have been working really well, that we keep coming back to, and it’s fun to keep tweaking to see if we can make it better and better.”

As noted earlier, expect the Weekend Update desk for a segment of topical jokes as well as a Q and A.

What else will you see on the tour?

As Poehler said no two shows are the same — the best way to find out is live.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Announce New Dates for “Restless Leg Tour”

The duo will be stopping in Austin, Las Vegas, Philadelphia, and more

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Announce New Dates for “Restless Leg Tour”

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are keeping the laughs coming with seven new dates for their “Restless Leg Tour.” Starting this September and running through January 2024, the Saturday Night Live alumni will stop in Cleveland, Philadelphia, and a number of cities in the West.

The new leg will begin on September 21st at the State Theatre at Playhouse Square in Cleveland, followed by stops in Denver, Austin, Las Vegas, and Philadelphia before closing out in Portland on January 13th. Check out the full list of dates below.

Update: The comedy duo have announced new shows in 2024 .

Tickets are available via StubHub , where orders are 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s FanProtect program.

“We had so much fun on the road, we decided to do more shows,” Fey said in a video announcing the dates.

The first leg of the “Restless Leg Tour” this past spring was a hit with fans, and sold out. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter , Fey said “After so many years of making single-camera television and movies, hoping someone alone in their house laughs at it, it’s fun to be in the room where they’re laughing.”

In the same interview, Poehler indicated that the new run of dates will feature new material. “I feel proud that if you come to a show more than once, you are going to see a different show the second time,” she said. “We’re always working on new material. We want to make sure that people feel like the show’s for them.”

This past February, it was announced that Fey and Tim Meadows would reprise their roles for the upcoming film adaptation of the Mean Girls Broadway musical.

Tina Fey and Amy Poehler 2023-2024 Tour Dates: 09/21 – Cleveland, OH @ State Theatre at Playhouse Square 10/01 – Denver, CO @ Bellco Theatre 10/12 – Austin, TX @ Bass Concert Hall 11/10 – Las Vegas, NV @ Resorts World Theatre 11/11 – Las Vegas, NV @ Resorts World Theatre 12/14 – Philadelphia, PA @ The Met 01/13 – Portland, OR @ Alaska Airlines’ Theater of the Clouds

four women stand in a row looking at something with their mouths open in awe

Comeback tour: why we should applaud Netflix for saving Girls5Eva

The whipsmart Tina Fey-produced sitcom was dropped by Peacock after two seasons yet it’s making a triumphant return and we should all be grateful

V ery quietly, without much publicity or promotion, Girls5Eva appeared on Netflix last week. For those of us who haven’t kept their eye on the ball, this came as an immense surprise. Because as far as we were concerned, Girls5Eva was dead. At the end of its second season a year and a half ago, the show’s original platform Peacock announced that it would not renew the show.

And we made our peace with that. Written by Meredith Scardino, a storied writer with credits on SNL and The Colbert Report, Girls5Eva at times seemed almost too beautiful to live. A sitcom about four middle-aged women determined to reform their noughties girl group and recapture a flicker of their old fame, it was not only dense with every form of joke imaginable – never has a show revelled quite so much in the background sight gag – but at times weirdly touching. Produced by Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, it shared an innate DNA with 30 Rock and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. It was fast and precise, and boasted a murderer’s row of talent.

Some of the cast you knew would be good. Busy Philipps is as reliable a comedy performer as you are ever likely to find, with a face elastic enough to convey a full spectrum of confusion and disgust, and Paula Pell has spent years looking for a breakout vehicle like this. But others were a total coin toss. The ostensible lead of the show was the earnest piano balladeer Sara Bareilles, a woman who did not seem like a natural fit for screwball comedy, and yet turned out to be brilliant.

And then there was Renée Elise Goldsberry, best known for playing Angelica Schuyler in Hamilton, who was absolutely revelatory as the absurd narcissist Wickie Roy. It’s absurd that you can be in Hamilton and then find a star-making role, but that’s exactly what Goldsberry did with Girls5Eva. If you were reluctant to watch initially, it’s worth it just to see the levels of mania she is able to hit.

And now you have another chance. It’s slightly surprising that Netflix picked up Girls5Eva. Long gone are the days when Netflix would swoop in and rescue any vaguely beloved show that looked like it might be in trouble. Now it has a habit of cutting shows off in their prime, unless millions of diehard fans are prepared to dedicate their entire lives to relentlessly pestering executives for a renewal. And Girls5Eva definitely did not have that. It had fans, yes, but it was a show for adults with busy lives that didn’t leave any room for annoying letter-writing campaigns.

But here we are. Girls5Eva is back, and more or less as good as it ever was. The comeback season is structured around the group’s first tour following their new album. We find them in residence at Fort Worth, where they have fallen into a rut of fan service, singing long renditions of one song about the town, beefed up with tracts from Wikipedia and chants of “Fuck Dallas”. It’s comfortable but unfulfilling work, and they need to break out.

The ensuing tour takes them to Wickie’s home, where the group learns the truth about her hardscrabble upbringing (spoiler: her parents are good at Scrabble, which is hard) and visit a rich fan to be confronted about the casual insensitivity of their early-noughties hits. It’s just as quick and absurd as it ever was. One joke about tooth whiteners might be the best we see on screen all year.

Which isn’t to say that it’s perfect, of course. The new season has got a little too giddy about being on Netflix, and has become improbably dirty in the process. It’s jarring the first time a character says “dick”, purely because we had 16 episodes where nobody did that, but it’s soon followed by a kaleidoscope of filthy language. I can’t remember an American show that uses the C-word so readily (including once in a musical number). Which isn’t to say that it’s morally wrong, but the series sits in such a heightened, sunny, day-glo space that the swearing can take you out of the world a little. Also, this might just be me, but the return of Girls5Eva has made me ever so slightly resentful that Netflix didn’t also decide to renew Tina Fey and Robert Carlock’s other lost masterpiece, Great News.

But these are quibbles. Girls5Eva is back, and in this media landscape we should treat it as the miracle that it is. Now it’s up to Netflix to keep making more of it.

Amy Tintera Adds a Different Note to the True Crime Podcast Novel

In her first book for adults, an author brings a fresh approach to the tale of an amateur sleuth and an unwitting subject.

  • Share full article

This picture shows Amy Tintera standing in a bookstore, holding a copy of "Listen for the Lie." She's wearing a hot pink T-shirt, a black flowered skirt and black shoes.

By Elisabeth Egan

Elisabeth Egan is an editor at the Book Review and the author of “A Window Opens.”

Podcasts have elbowed their way into novels — and onto the best-seller list — with a zeal that’s becoming … familiar. In the past few years, Rebecca Makkai , Denise Mina , Lisa Jewell and Holly Jackson have all written fiction that turns up the volume (not sorry) on episodic storytelling, usually having to do with true crime. OK, we get it: Nancy Drew had her blue notebook, trusty convertible and loyal sidekicks, Bess and George. Modern sleuths have pop filters, sound booths and rapid-fire ads for BetterHelp and SimpliSafe.

Thankfully, Amy Tintera adds a fresh note to the mix in “Listen for the Lie,” which shifts the focus from podcaster to accused. In the court of public opinion, Lucy Chase was long ago convicted of murdering her best friend, Savannah “Savvy” Harper, in Plumpton, Texas (not a real place, but “all the locals know each other and attend the same church,” so you get the idea).

The problem is — and here’s another plot device that’s getting a little bit long in the tooth — Lucy doesn’t remember what happened the night Savvy died. She can’t recall the wedding they both attended, nor can she explain why she was found the next morning, wandering down a local road, still in her blue dress.

Enter Ben Owens, who trains his mic on her story, determined to crack the case. His interest all but guarantees Lucy’s life sentence by a jury of listeners.

“I was obsessed with Serial, like everyone else,” Tintera said in a phone interview. “I enjoy true crime podcasts but I also have a lot of conflicted feelings about them.” She’d read up on Amanda Knox , who spent four years in jail in Italy for the murder of her friend and roommate, Meredith Kercher, before being acquitted. This tragedy started to unfold in 2007, well before the podcast boom, but still in the era of trial by magazine cover and talk show.

“I had been following her throughout the years and watching how her life has been shaped by public opinion,” Tintera said of Knox. What would it be like to be the subject of such intense scrutiny? While she devoured true crime podcasts, she had a nagging feeling of guilt: “I thought this would be an interesting concept to explore. And maybe the host of the podcast I created would have some of those conflicted emotions about the case he was investigating.”

Tintera added, “I also wanted to have a character who only had memories of loving her friend, while everyone around her was saying, ‘No, you didn’t. You secretly hated her.’”
