New Daily Show host honored by city

February 12, 2016
It doesnt give anyone the day off, but Feb. 12 is nonetheless an official holiday in Boston. Mayor Marty Walsh proclaimed Friday Trevor Noah Day, kicking off the comedians sold-out six-show weekend at the Wilbur Theatre. While the dimply Daily Show host isnt a Bostonian he was born in Johannesburg Walsh aimed to recognize Noahs contribution to the diversity of talent seen in and throughout the Northeast region of America, as he wrote in the proclamation. Among Noahs virtues, the mayor wrote, is his commitment to spreading awareness to challenging issues facing America through humor, parody, and satire. If you cant celebrate, dont worry: Stan Lee Day is coming up again this summer.
