MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — In a surprise last-minute announcement by the Hennepin Theatre Trust, comedian Dave Chappelle will perform at the State Theatre Thursday night.

The “Chappelle Show” comedian will perform at 9 p.m. Thursday at the Hennepin Avenue theater.

Tickets — $54 — went on sale at 4 p.m. Wednesday.

Chappelle had a three-year run with his highly successful show before deciding to leave TV and promptly dropping off the radar.
