Martin Short Comedy Show Postponed After Daughter’s Death

The show was pushed back “due to unforeseen circumstances.”

Martin Short’s comedy show with Steve Martin has been postponed after his daughter’s death. The Best of Steve Martin & Martin Short was originally scheduled for Friday in Milwaukee but has been postponed to a later date “due to unforeseen circumstances,” according to an announcement from The Pabst Theater Group. The postponement came after Katherine Short, 42, was found dead at her Hollywood Hills home on Monday, according to TMZ. Law enforcement sources told the outlet that she died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. “It is with profound grief that we confirm the passing of Katherine Hartley Short,” a representative said in a statement to TMZ. “The Short family is devastated by this loss, and asks for privacy at this time. Katherine was beloved by all and will be remembered for the light and joy she brought into the world.” Katherine was the daughter of Short and Nancy Dolman, his wife of three decades, who died of ovarian cancer in 2010.
