Dave Chapelle Did A Surprise Gig With Chris Rock Last Night In New York

Feb 28, 2013, 23:04 IST
@MARLONLWAYANS / TwitterDave Chappelle may finally be ready to return to comedy.
The comedian's been in New York City performing new material at the Comedy Celler for the past few evenings. Wednesday night, he performed with Chris Rock for a reported hour on stage while Kevin Hart and Sherrod Small were in attendance. According to the comedy site Comic's Comic, the two began discussing a possible future tour on stage. "After next Tuesday, I'm free for like 11 years," said Chappelle. Rock suggested although he has filming in the works this spring, he's open to the idea. "I've got time between now and the movie," said Rock. "By Halloween, I could do dates." This summer, Rock, will appear in the sequel to Adam Sandler's comedy "Grown Ups." Chappelle even suggested a name for the show: "Fireside chats with Chris Rock."
Chappelle's last mainstream appearance was 2011 during an impromptu radio interview with San Francisco's WiLD 94.9. Before then, the popular "Chappelle's Show" host abruptly walked away from the third season of his hit Comedy Central show in 2005. In an interview with TIME, the comedian reportedly headed to South Africa in 2005 on a spiritual retreat to get away from the pressures of fame and keep his routine fresh. Though Entertainment Weekly reported Chappelle as heading to a mental facility, he told TIME that wasn't the case. "I'm not crazy," Chappelle told TIME. "I'm not smoking crack. I'm definitely stressed out."
