Comedian Rickey Smiley Brings 'The ADHD Tour' to Tampa Theatre on November 6

Comedian Rickey Smiley will bring his 'The ADHD Tour' to the Tampa Theatre on Friday, November 6, 2026, at 8:00 PM. Worldwide Events is co-presenting the show with Tampa Theatre, offering Riverview residents an opportunity to see the multifaceted entertainer live.

Smiley, a comedian for more than 30 years, is widely recognized for his stand-up comedy, acting roles, and as the host of the nationally syndicated 'The Rickey Smiley Morning Show'. He earned the Marconi Award for Best Radio Personality for his work on the show, which is considered the radio equivalent of an Oscar.

Beyond his stage and radio career, Smiley is also an author. His most recent book, 'Sideshow: Living with Loss and Moving Forward with Faith,' published by HarperCollins, delves into his personal journey of coping with grief following the death of his eldest son. The book also explores the impact of mental health stigmas and drug addiction within the Black community and society at large.

Smiley's acting credits include roles in urban classics such as 'All About the Benjamins,' 'Friday After Next,' and 'Baggage Claim.' He also co-starred in the Nick Cannon film 'Miracles Across 125th Street.' In addition to his own theater tour, Smiley makes special appearances on the REAL TALK Comedy Tour and the Martin Lawrence-hosted LIT AF Tour, showcasing his popular characters like “Mrs. Bernice Jenkins,” “Lil’ Daryl,” “Joe Willie,” and “Beauford.”

Tickets for the November 6 performance are available through the Tampa Theatre website. Residents interested in attending should secure their tickets in advance for what promises to be an evening of comedy and entertainment.
