Nurse Blake: But Did You Die? at Belding Theater

Nurse Blake returns with his brand-new comedy tour But Did You Die? on Monday, September 15, 2025, at 7 pm at the Maxwell M. and Ruth R. Belding Theater in Hartford. Known for his viral videos and unfiltered humor about life in healthcare, Nurse Blake dives into the outrageous things patients and families say and do, from self-diagnosing on WebMD to treating the call light like a game show buzzer.

With a sharp comedic eye and stories pulled from real-life nursing experiences, Nurse Blake’s show is packed with nonstop laughter and a theater full of healthcare workers ready to unwind. His mix of comedy and storytelling has earned him nearly 4 million followers online, sold-out tours worldwide, and recognition from The New York Times as a “genuine phenomenon.” Beyond the stage, he is also an advocate for change in healthcare, known for founding the Banned4Life campaign to overturn the FDA’s lifetime ban on blood donations from gay men.

The performance is recommended for ages 18 and older. The Belding Theater is located at The Bushnell, 166 Capitol Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut. For tickets and more details, visit bushnell.org or call (860) 987-5900.
