variety.comKate Aurthur editorSonja Morgan, a beloved cast member on Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of New York City,” has been signed by UTA for comedy touring.
Morgan is set to launch a nine-city leg of her “Sonja in Your City” tour this spring, and tickets go on sale March 8.Morgan joined “The Real Housewives of New York City” in the show’s third season in 2010.
She has frequently appeared on stage on the show, including in a famous Caburlesque performance during Season 6, and when she joined her castmate Luann de Lesseps for a rousing version of “Money Can’t Buy You Class” in the show’s 10th season (during which Morgan had a wardrobe malfunction, which she took in characteristic stride).On “RHONY,” Morgan is known for her joie de vivre (sometimes to a fault).
She has gone through highs and lows on the show, both financially and emotionally, but is a fan favorite and emerged from the show’s tough-to-watch 13th season with her spirit and dignity intact. “RHONY” is currently paused as Bravo figures out how to repair the show — an important cornerstone of the franchise — after its most recent season, which concluded in September and suffered from low ratings and negative publicity.
