Emmy Award-winning stand-up comedian and writer John Mulaney has cooked up a new tour “From Scratch” with a stop in Springfield on Thursday at the MassMutual Center.
Sponsored by MGM Springfield, showtime is 8 p.m. A limited number of tickets, available at massmutualcenter.com, range in price from $59 to $139.
Produced by Live Nation, the tour kicked off on March 11 in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and is making stops across North America including Los Aneles, New York and Chicago.
Mulaney’s “Kid Gorgeous” tour in 2018 was a sellout across the United States and was filmed for Netflix and won the Emmy for Outstanding Writing in a Variety Special. Previously, in 2015 he released “The Comeback Kid,” also a Netflix original, which The AV Club called the “best hour of his career.”
In December 2019, the critically acclaimed and Emmy-nominated musical variety special “John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch” debuted on Netflix. It was recently announced that festivities will continue with a pair of holiday themed “Sack Lunch Bunch” specials coming to Comedy Central in the near future.
The popular comedian has starred on Broadway and been invited to host NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” five times.
He began writing for “SNL” in 2008 and created memorable characters such as Stefon with Bill Hader and appeared as a Weekend Update correspondent. He has written for IFC’s “Documentary Now!” and Netflix’s “Big Mouth,” on which he voices the character of Andrew.
