Hailed as the "Australian queen of comedy," Celeste Barber has just announced her Backup Dancer Tour taking place this year. The North American romp will make a stop in Vancouver on May 15 at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre.

Barber has gained international attention—and 9.5 million Instagram followers—for her gut-busting skits and celebrity parodies on the social media platform, poking fun at the likes of Cindy Crawford, Bella Hadid, and Kim Kardashian.

Now, the Backup Dancer Tour follows the success of her Netflix special, Celeste Barber: Fine, Thanks.

Barber kicks off her tour at the Netflix Is a Joke Comedy Festival in Los Angeles on May 2, then hits cities such as New York, Atlanta, Toronto, and Vancouver.

In a statement, the Aussie comedian says she is “excited to tell some jokes, relive some awkward memories, and high kick my way across the stage.” If you get the presale tickets today, you’ll be able to watch her do just that.
