A Night of Comedy at Performance Drive
Richardson’s performing arts anchor, the Charles W. Eisemann Center, hosts comedian and storyteller Amit Tandon on Saturday, Sept. 12, 2026, with the show starting at 7:00 p.m. The venue sits at 2351 Performance Dr., Richardson, TX 75082 — easy to reach whether you are coming from the Campbell Road corridor or off U.S. 75.
Tandon has built a following across the U.S. and internationally for a style that blends stand-up with sharp personal storytelling, often drawing on marriage, family dynamics, and the friction of modern life. The Eisemann stage gives him one of the more polished rooms in the Dallas metro: the Hill Performance Hall seats 1,563 and carries clean acoustics that matter for a solo performer working without props or a band.
Tickets and Logistics
Tickets for the Sept. 12 show are available through AXS and range, like most Eisemann Center productions this fall, in the $20–$67 window depending on seat selection. Buying early tends to get you better placement in the Hill Performance Hall, where sightlines vary noticeably between the floor and upper tiers.
Parking at the Eisemann Center is available on site. The venue is also accessible from the Galatyn Park DART station on the Red Line, which drops riders within a short walk of the front entrance — a practical option if you want to avoid hunting for a spot on a Saturday evening.
Doors typically open 30 to 45 minutes before curtain at the Eisemann. Plan to be in your seat before 7:00 p.m.; the hall dims on time.
The Eisemann’s Broader Fall Calendar
The Sept. 12 Tandon show is one piece of a fuller fall season at the Eisemann. The 1,563-seat Hill Performance Hall and the smaller Bank of America Theater are running theatrical productions, jazz, world music, and special anniversary programming across September and October, with tickets again in that $20–$67 range depending on the production.
Later in September, the venue also hosts Persian comedy duo Omid and Jamshid on Friday, Sept. 18 at 8:30 p.m. — a rescheduled date from a November 2025 appearance. If Tandon’s Sept. 12 show sells out or you are looking to fill a second night on the calendar, that performance is the next ticketed event on the Eisemann’s schedule within this stretch.
Planning Ahead
For residents who use the Eisemann regularly, the fall season is worth bookmarking now rather than show by show. The center’s programming tends to cluster on weekends, and a handful of dates in October are expected to draw strong advance sales based on past seasons.
The Eisemann Center box office and full event listings are at eisemanncenter.com. Ticket availability and showtimes can shift, so confirm details directly with the venue before the night of.
Why This One Matters on the Richardson Calendar
The Eisemann Center is city-owned and purpose-built for this kind of programming. It opened as a civic investment in live arts, and the fall schedule reflects that original intent — a mix of touring comedy, music, and theater that keeps residents from having to drive into Dallas proper for a professional-caliber show.
For a Saturday night in Richardson, Sept. 12 is a straightforward call: doors at 2351 Performance Dr., show at 7:00 p.m., comedian on stage with nothing between him and the audience but a microphone and an hour’s worth of material.
