Rock is also scheduled to appear at the Wilbur Theatre on March 31 and April 1, with two shows nightly.

Those shows are also sold out.

Rock’s appearance Wednesday night comes as ticket sales for his comedy shows have continued to increase after he was slapped by Smith on stage at the 94th Academy Awards following a joke about Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.
