    Best comedian I have ever seen

    by Michelle Paladeau-Zic on 2022-11-06TD Place Arena - Ottawa

    We were literally in pain from laughing. It was a perfect show. Even the opening act was hilarious.

    Not bad

    by Mats B on 2022-11-06TD Place Arena - Ottawa

    Comedian was good. However audio could have been better, especially for the opening act. Seats were a bit difficult to find. Ushers need more training on how to deal with people in the wrong seats, as there was a lady in front of us who didn't want to move. Very distracting...

    NAC would have been a better venue

    by Virdisun on 2022-11-06TD Place Arena - Ottawa

    Horrible acoustics and stage. We couldn't see anything or hear Seaton Smith. John Mulaney was good but I prefer his older material.

    Great show, but long lines to get in

    by John K on 2022-11-06TD Place Arena - Ottawa

    The show itself was great , but the long lines due to the security pouches for everyone’s cell phone was a pain . Was also very distracting trying to watch the first act while everyone was getting to find/ get to their seats in the dark.

    Almost awesome

    by Chicks on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    If we are going to lock up devices in 2022+ there are a few things that can help the experience. Show the time somewhere and provide more tech safe spaces

    Couldn’t stop laughing!

    by On the fence on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    His delivery is like no other. To his credit he was picking on himself all night and that has to be tough. I couldn’t stop crying from all the laughing! I can’t wait to see him again.

    Good but locking phones bad

    by Carney on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    He was very good. First time seeing him. Overall quite entertaining, and btw rating given the subject matter was him. Did not agree with locking phones. Would not go to anything again that requires that.

    Mega Church indeed 😀

    by Sweet Baby J on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    Fan-flippin-tastic! Anyone that thinks otherwise doesn't have a funny bone in their body. A true master of his craft. Nothing about the show was lacking.

    We Laughed, We Cried...We Had Great Seats

    by C'est Moi Again on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    Even though we suspect this will be on Netflix, it was worth it to see live. Surprisingly moving show. Not just funny, but riveting story of his intervention. Loved the audience interaction, wasn't expecting that. Mr Mulaney is very good company and we wish him all the best. We weren't familiar with Seaton Smith and were pleasantly surprised. Warm and engaging.

    Perfect John Mulaney

    by Sara on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    As great a show as you always see him perform. He was exactly as I hoped for live as I've seen in his specials. His opener, Seaton Smith was great too.

    My stomach still hurts from laughing

    by Sue on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    This show was absolute hilarity from the opening act till the time John walked off the stage. I literally never stopped laughing and John Mulaney is just the best ever! I am so glad he came to Edmonton but I would travel to see him again.

    Brilliant Performance

    by Shell on 2022-11-05Rogers Place - Edmonton

    John Mulaney has been my favourite comedian for years now and I’m so grateful I got to see him live. He delivered a fantastic performance as always but when you to take his already stellar comedy and mix that with this new raw vulnerability, we’ll let’s just say John Mulaney really outdoes himself.

    Great performance

    by Bre on 2022-10-29Canada Life Centre - Winnipeg

    Loved the performance, the seats were very close together, not roomy enough imo.

    A dream come true

    by A. S. on 2022-10-24

    It was truly an amazing experience to see John Mulaney in person! My first introduction to stand up comedy was John Mulaneys Salt & Pepper Diner bit, and I have been hooked ever since. When Mulaney took the stage my jaw dropped and it stayed there for the rest of his act. Mulaney keeps his same signature delivery on his jokes just with a little less of the more chaotic physical elements (gee, I wonder why). The comedy was perfectly presented and I was entertained from beginning to end. We were lucky enough to get floor seats, and it was crazy being that close! Cheeks were aching and stomachs were hurting by the end of this show! The openers for the show were amazing as well, so it just ended up being a laugh riot all evening. I am very much hoping I can afford to go again!

    Laughed until I cried!

    by WhitneyRJ on 2022-10-23Scotiabank Saddledome - Calgary

    Absolutely adored the show. My husband & I laughed until we cried. I appreciated how real and raw John was. I love all of his shows & I’ve watched them all several times, & I really hoped that this show wouldn’t disappoint, and it didn’t! We loved it! I’ve recommended it to everyone! I can’t wait until I can watch it on repeat!

    Mulaney in Calgary

    by Juan on 2022-10-20Scotiabank Saddledome - Calgary

    I love John Mulaney. Great seeing him live, but a bit disappointing that a fair bit of his material dealing with mental health has been used before. He looked a bit disheveled too, like tour has been tough and of course his drug battle was enormous. I left happy to have seen him but hoping he stays sober going forward.

    Amazing night

    Undoubtedly a good time

    by G on 2022-10-19Scotiabank Saddledome - Calgary

    The overall experience was great. I know some people will be annoyed that phones were locked, but they were swift in getting them unlocked on the way out, and it’s completely understandable why such a measure had to be taken. In terms of the actual comedy I though Mulaney was witty, crafty and engaging in his jokes. Some landed better than others and he was definitely more engaging in the audience with what some might feel is less tight knit material. Maybe a little less explosive in his movements and acts, but I mean common. He’s sober and older, what did you expect? I felt his material was raw, interesting and of course, most importantly, funny. Getting out was a bit of a hassle, but if you’re not open to the idea that you might be paying for parking and getting home might take you a little while longer, I don’t know what world you live in. Overall, I’d give the experience 4.5 if I could. There were only a few times where I felt the experience could be improved. Mulaney has put a very little spin on his style that isn’t necessarily better or worse it just simply is. But at the heart of it, his comedy feels much the same. He’s still very funny and I would recommend him to most anyone.
