John Mulaney: The Return of a Sharp Mind
John Mulaney is returning to Savannah. The Emmy-winning comedian and former Saturday Night Live writer will bring his razor-edged storytelling to the Johnny Mercer Theatre on February 13, 2026, performing his new Mister Whatever Tour for one night only. Known for his sharp timing, self-deprecating humor, and the kind of delivery that makes even the simplest line feel electric, Mulaney promises an evening that’s equal parts confession, comedy, and reflection.
Mulaney has a gift for taking the ordinary and twisting it just enough to show how strange life really is. A former Saturday Night Live writer and Emmy winner, he built his reputation on stories that balance intellect with vulnerability, using timing so precise it feels like music. He doesn’t just tell jokes; he builds little worlds, then invites you to step inside and laugh at how familiar they feel.
Fresh off his Netflix special Baby J and the playful chaos of Everybody’s in L.A., Mulaney’s Mister Whatever Tour finds him reflecting on fame, fatherhood, and the strange business of being human. It’s personal without being precious, smart without ever showing off.
If you’ve seen him before, you already know. If not, this is your chance to watch one of comedy’s most distinct voices do what he does best—turn the mess of modern life into something that feels, if only for an hour, perfectly clear.
