Description

AURORA, IL — A famous comedian and late-night show host will be visiting Aurora this weekend. Ex-"Tonight Show" host Jay Leno is scheduled to perform a stand-up comedy routine at Paramount Theatre Saturday. The upcoming show is one that was originally supposed to take place in 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, two years later, Leno's act is set to start at 8 p.m. at the downtown Aurora theater, located at 23 E. Galena Boulevard. Leno won't be the only performer gracing Paramount's stage Friday. Indiana-born and Nashville-raised artist Jon Mclaughlin will open the evening with a musical performance. Since debuting his first album in 2007, Mclaughlin has released six full-length albums in the span of 12 years. Tickets to see the man who hosted "The Tonight Show" for more than two decades are still available, and they cost between $89 to $109. While Paramount Theatre offers discounts to subscribers, organizers said those won't be applicable for Leno's show. Tickets purchased for the 2020 event were automatically transferred to the rescheduled date.
