The Mohegan Sun Arena announced today that comedy superstar Kevin Hart will perform at the Wilkes-Barre Township venue at 7 p.m. March 16 as part of his Irresponsible Tour.

Hart’s memoir, “I Can’t Make This Up: Life Lessons,” debuted at No. 1 on the New York Times Bestseller list this year, and he is set to appear alongside Dwayne Johnson and Jack Black in the remake of “Jumanji” to end 2017.

The actor/comedian also recently launched the LOL NETWORK, a comedy brand and multi-platform network founded in partnership with Lionsgate.

Tickets go at 10 a.m. on Friday at the arena box office, ticketmaster.com and livenation.com.
