HONOLULU (KHON2) -- If you're in need of some laughs, the remedy is coming up this weekend as world-renowned comedian and actress Sarah Silverman is here in the islands for two dates. She will host her Postmortem tour Friday night at the Hawaii Theatre in Honolulu and Saturday at the Castle Theatre on Maui. Lawmakers take aim on e-bikes following ‘egregious civil disobedience,’ in Ewa Beach "I think laughs, a drop of humanity, and a good time," Silverman told KHON2 about what fans can expect. "I just more than ever feel compelled to be silly and funny and hopefully give some relief. That said, the tour is called Postmortem, and to be honest, the show is about my parents dying. They died nine days apart, but it is just the funny parts." Much of Silverman's genius in the comedy world is being able to find levity in difficult topics and conversations, and masterfully finding punch lines that land and bring people together to share laughter.

"If you look at any cultures that have been through horrible trauma comedy always finds a way because that's how we cope, and it keeps us healthy and alive." As Silverman plays on Maui, the hope is that many who are still reeling from the catastrophic fires on the valley isle can find some joy in the show, as others who feel overwhelmed with world events. "I think the common denominator is we're all connected; we're not very different from each other at all, and I think that when we're divided there are other powers that are at work keeping us divided, but when we're in a room together it's always different."
