Kevin Hart is 44, and acting it. His new show at Resorts World Theatre will prove as much.

The Mark Twain Award honoree is back at Resorts World Theatre with “Acting My Age,” two performances July 12 and 14. The shows are on sale 10 a.m. Friday at AXS.com (presales starting 10 a.m. Wednesday). More information about the performances is at rwlasvegas.com/entertainment/.

Hart starred in an eight-show run, “The Reality Check Tour,” in 2022-23. That series was the No. 1 comedy tour of 2022, according to Billboard, which also named him the country’s highest-grossing comedian of the year in ’23.

Hart promises new material at the Resorts World shows. No phones, smartwatches or recording devices are allowed in the performances.
