The former host of “The Late, Late Show” and “Celebrity Name Game” is coming to Medicine Hat this fall on his Hobo Fabulous Tour.

Craig Ferguson will perform his stand-up act at the Esplanade on Oct. 20.

As host of “The Late Late Show” Ferguson became well-known for his irreverent and stream-of-consciousness monologues, a departure from the style typical of late-night hosts like Johnny Carson and David Letterman.

Ferguson has worked in almost every aspect of the entertainment industry over the years. The Scottish-born Ferguson began as a drummer for punk bands in the U.K., spent nearly a decade in the role of Nigel Wick on “The Drew Carey Show” and has written two books and three films.

Tickets go on sale today at 10 a.m. and will be available at http://www.tixx.ca, by calling 403-502-8777 or in person at the Esplanade box office or the Medicine Hat Mall customer service desk.
