Tyler Perry Tickets

Tyler Perry is a writer, director and producer known for his many stage plays, television series and motion pictures. He was born and raised in New Orleans, and his work tends to focus on African American families. Perry burst into the theater scene with 1998 play I Know I've Been Changed. This was followed by 2000's I Can Do Bad All By Myself, which was the first time he introduced Madea to the world. This popular character of his became the headline for a string of successful films. Perry has also starred in a few Hollywood films such as Gone Girl, Alex Cross and Vice. He owes a lot of his success to his one-of-a-kind character Madea. However, after a 20-year run, Tyler is finally parting ways with this character. Madea's Farewell, which Perry says is the last play with Madea, has recently ended its 2019 run.

Madea Opened Doors for Tyler Perry

Madea is the vindictive yet ultimately good-natured grandma who first appeared in Tyler Perry's play, I Can Do Bad All by Myself. Perry was inspired by his mother and aunts when he created this character. He played this outlandish character himself by dressing up in a gray wig and dress. While the character was always intended to provide comic relief, Perry says he had no idea Madea would gain such a big following. To date, Madea has been featured in several plays, including Madea’s Class Reunion, Madea’s Family Reunion, Madea Goes to Jail and many more. In 2005, Perry gained a new level of stardom when his film Diary of a Mad Black Woman opened No. 1 at the box office. The movie was written and produced by him. In just its first week of sales, the DVD sold almost 2.5 million copies.
