From a press release:
Fathom Events and Comedy Dynamics present a not-to-be-missed cinema event featuring one of the biggest names in comedy with “Comedy Dynamics Presents: Bill Hicks,” in select U.S. cinemas on Monday, April 27 at 8 p.m., including Cinemark 20 in Moosic.

Hicks was extremely influential, hilarious, and before-his-time. “Relentless” finds the legendary comedian at the top of his game. With classic jokes railing against non-smokers, musicians who don’t use drugs, and the (then current) Gulf War effort, “Relentless” is essential Hicks both for the newcomer and super fan.
“Working with the Hicks legacy is an honor for all of us at Comedy Dynamics, and we are thrilled to partner with Fathom Events to bring his work to the big screen,” said Brian Volk-Weiss, president of production at Comedy Dynamics.
Fathom Events VP of Programming Kymberli Frueh-Owens said, “This late, great comedian truly set the bar for modern stand-up and was an influential creative force behind many of today’s most popular comedians. Even decades after his passing, this comedic genius is still lauded.”
