Oh, hello! This morning, the Riverside Theater announced that stand-up comedian John Mulaney will bring his "Kid Gorgeous" tour to the Milwaukee venue on Friday, Sept. 15, returning for the first time since a gig at Turner Hall Ballroom in 2013 where he "highlighted why he is one of the best stand-up comedians working today."
Mulaney's comedy career has everything: three televised stand-up specials; a hit Broadway theater run alongside fellow comedian Nick Kroll playing two elderly New Yorkers in "Oh, Hello," which was just taped and added to Netflix; six seasons writing for "Saturday Night Live," where he won an Emmy and helped co-create Bill Hader's iconic Stefon character. Basically, whenever Hader would crack up on stage, it was probably Mulaney's doing.
Tickets for the September show will go on sale starting Wednesday, June 21 at noon. For more information on the show, visit the Riverside's website.
As much as it is a gigantic cliché to say that one has always had a passion for film, Matt Mueller has always had a passion for film. Whether it was bringing in the latest movie reviews for his first grade show-and-tell or writing film reviews for the St. Norbert College Times as a high school student, Matt is way too obsessed with movies for his own good.
When he's not writing about the latest blockbuster or talking much too glowingly about "Piranha 3D," Matt can probably be found watching literally any sport (minus cricket) or working at - get this - a local movie theater. Or watching a movie. Yeah, he's probably watching a movie.
