Issa Rae and the cast of HBO’s“Insecure”have called off the planned 13-city 10th anniversary tour. The announcement came via a candid Instagram video featuring the cast and showrunner Prentice Penny, who cited scheduling conflicts as the main culprit. Natasha Rothwell, who played Kelli on the show, put it plainly:“The tour ain’t happening, y’all. I’m so sorry.”The good news is that the cast is staying busy, which is the reason for the cancellation in the first place. Issa Rae is developing a new HBO show centered on male friendships in Las Vegas, and the rest of the cast has projects keeping them occupied.
Despite the tour being scrapped, fans aren’t completely out of luck. A one-night-only anniversary show is set for October 8th in Inglewood, California, the city where the series was famously set. This special event will give fans a chance to celebrate the show’s legacy in a more intimate setting. For those who purchased tickets to the now-canceled tour dates, refunds will be honored, so keep an eye on your inbox or your original payment method.
While it’s a disappointment for fans who wanted to see the show celebrated across the country, the silver lining is that this cast is in high demand.“Everybody started working, which is good,”showrunner Prentice Penny said. It’s a classic case of success creating a scheduling logjam. If you’re a die-hard fan, that October 8th show in Inglewood might be worth the trip. Are you going to try and get tickets to the one-night show, or were you more interested in the full tour?
