One of America's sharpest, and shortest, comedians is coming back to Utah.

Kevin Hart will bring his "What Now?" tour to the Maverik Center, 3200 S. Decker Lake Dr., West Valley City, on Tuesday, Sept. 8 at 7 p.m.

The tour, playing in arenas in 45 North American cities, is billed as the largest comedy tour in history. It started in April in San Antonio, and includes stops at New York's Madison Square Garden and at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia (his home town).

Hart — known for his rapid-fire, pugnacious delivery — received a Comedic Genius Award at this year's MTV Movie Awards, after starring in "The Wedding Ringer" and "Get Hard." He is set to star in "Ride Along 2," due next year. He also is executive producer on BET's "Real Husbands of Hollywood."

Tickets for Hart's Maverik Center show go on sale Friday at 10 a.m., via TicketMaster.
