PILSEN — Miss your chance to snag Dave Chappelle stand-up tickets at Thalia Hall? You're in luck — promoters are adding two new shows to the comedian's stay in Chicago.

Promoters are adding the two shows after 13 Dave Chappelle shows at Thalia Hall sold out in minutes last week. The tickets, to a 7 p.m. show and 10:30 p.m. show Monday, go on sale at 5 p.m. Thursday.

Doors to the Monday night shows open at 5:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. respectively.

Tickets to his 13 original stand-up shows in Chicago — starting with Monday night's "warm up" show and continuing through Sunday — sold out in less than hour, a Thalia Hall rep confirmed Monday afternoon.

Event organizers said the quick sell-out of 13 Chappelle shows rivaled last year's Smashing Pumpkins one-night-only performance at Thalia Hall in Pilsen.

Dave Chappelle tickets were priced at $67 each, with the exception of Monday night's "warm up" show, which cost $37.

Cell phones will not be allowed in the venue during the 17 & up Dave Chappelle performances "under any circumstances," according to the Ticketmaster website. Attendees are encouraged to leave their cell phones in their vehicles.
