Torrington, CT – This Saturday, March 22 at 8:00 pm, Outback Concerts will present Lisa Lampanelli with her “Leaner and Meaner” Tour - live at the Warner Theatre in Torrington, CT.

Heralded as "more than a standup -- a standout,” by comedy legend Jim Carrey, Lampanelli is a cross between Don Rickles, Archie Bunker, and a vial of estrogen. She has won accolades from The King of All Media, Howard Stern, who called her "a true original and a brilliant comedy mind who'll steal the show every time."

Known for saying things that most people are afraid to think, Lisa Lampanelli's raunchy, gut-busting performances are wildly popular at theaters across the U.S. and Canada. Lisa recently appeared in her latest one-hour special “Tough Love” which premiered on Comedy Central and is now available on CD/DVD. Cementing her rise, Lisa recently joined 17 other celebrities on the newest season of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice.”

Lampanelli joined the ranks of comedy greats with her 2009 HBO comedy special, "Long Live the Queen,” and that same year, released her first autobiography, Chocolate, Please: My Adventures in Food, Fat and Freaks. As a writer, Lisa also pens the monthly Women column in Playboy Magazine.

This equal opportunity offender is a regular on late night television, and a frequent guest and guest host on Howard Stern's Sirius satellite radio shows. She has also parlayed her love of Broadway into her own one-woman show, which premiered in early 2013.

Tickets are $42.75 (all fees included) and can be purchased by calling the Warner Box Office at 860-489-7180 or online at www.warnertheatre.org. *This Show Is For Mature Audiences Only*
