You can see RZA on four additional dates now.

RZA's undoubtedly the mastermind behind the success of the Wu-Tang Clan. While there might be criticisms towards the way he carried the group, if it wasn't for his unique production style and direction, who knows if Wu-Tang would be at the legendary status they are today. A few years back, he went on tour to live-score the movie The 36th Chamber Of Shaolin and now, he's bringing back the tour for a few additional dates.

If you missed out on RZA's "Live From the 36th Chamber of Shaolin" tour in 2016, you're in luck. The producer recently announced additional dates for the show where he'll be live-scoring the movie in its entirety. The shows will take place from towards the end of April. It'll kick off in Denver at the Paramount Theatre before concluding in San Francisco at the Castro Theatre. He'll be tapping into Wu's catalog to give the movie's score an updated version. Unfortunately, it's only five dates so you should definitely start making plans to check that out before its too late.

The 36th Chamber Of Shaolin is clearly a heavy influence among RZA and the rest of the Wu-Tang Clan considering the title of their debut album.

Peep the dates below. 

April 17 -- Denver, CO @ Paramount Theatre
April 18 -- Washington DC @ Warner Theatre
Aprl 20 -- Miami, FL @ Lemon City Studios (III Joints Fest)
April 24 -- Los Angeles @ Palace Theater
April 25 -- San Francisco, CA @ Castro Theatre
