Lewis Black Comedy Cruise

Lewis Black is inviting fans to join him and a group of his most hilarious pals as the Royal Caribbean Cruise Line’s Liberty of the Seas, or Ship of Fools, sets sail for the Caribbean.

The seven-day comedy cruise takes place Nov. 7-14. The ship takes off from Miami and then makes stops in Costa Maya, Mexico; Belize City, Belize; Cozumel, Mexico and George Town, Grand Cayman.

The Show At Agua Caliente Casino Resort Spa, Rancho Mirage, Calif.

“This show just can’t happen on dry land,” the comedian explains on the cruise’s Web site. “A cruise offers the possibility of a week of unlimited fun. And we can all go a little crazy and just walk back to our rooms. It provided me the opportunity to spend time with my good friends, who also happen to be some of the funniest people I know. Don’t whine to me if you miss this once in a lifetime opportunity. A vacation. And constant live entertainment. You can rock climb on this boat, why I don’t know but you can. You can surf on this boat. Don’t ask – it wasn’t my idea. So join us you pricks, who knows, it may even make me smile.”
