Tracy Morgan returns after tragic accident
Tracy Morgan makes a return to the stage with his Picking Up the Pieces Tour — the former “30 Rock” star’s first time back to the Bay Area stage since surviving a 2014 bus accident that killed a close friend and put him in a two-week coma.
The 47-year-old comedian has been edging back into the spotlight over the past year or so, returning to “Saturday Night Live,” where he got his start, and performing impromptu sets in New York steak houses. On a recent appearance on “The View,” Morgan said comedy is what pulled him through the darkness.
“As long as I do stand-up in the spirit of the gods, the comedy gods that came before me, I’m protected,” he says.
