All shows are listed as evening performances, giving you several dates to choose from in Madison.
What time do the Madison shows start, and when should I arrive?
The January 22 show is scheduled for 7:30 PM, and the Madison listings show evening times around 7:00–7:30 PM for the other dates as well. Plan to arrive 45–60 minutes early so you have time for parking, ticket scanning, security, and finding your seat without rushing.
Where is The Orpheum Theater located in Madison?
The Orpheum Theater is located at 216 State Street, Madison, Wisconsin 53703, in the downtown area near the Capitol. It is a historic venue that regularly hosts touring comedians and concerts, and it is easy to reach by car, bus, or rideshare.
Is the Madison show part of John Mulaney’s “Mister Whatever” tour?
The Orpheum and tour listings label these Madison dates specifically as “John Mulaney: Mister Whatever,” confirming they are official tour stops. The expanded 2026 tour schedule also mentions Madison as one of the new dates added to the “Mister Whatever” run.
How much do John Mulaney tickets cost at The Orpheum Theater in Madison?
Ticket information shows that prices for the January 22 show start around $162–$176 on some platforms, with average prices for John Mulaney in Madison quoted near $200–$230 per ticket. For the January 24 date, price charts list lowest balcony tickets around the mid-$130s, with higher prices for floor and closer seats.
How can I get cheap tickets for John Mulaney in Madison?
To find cheaper tickets, search for balcony seats, especially higher rows like row R or other back-row balcony options, which are often the lowest-priced listings. Compare prices and fees across several sites, use “Deal Score” or similar value tools where available, and check all three Madison dates (Jan 22–24) because one night may have cheaper starting prices or better deals than the others.
Is it a good idea to wait for last-minute tickets in Madison?
The official tour site shows the Madison shows as sold out, meaning face-value tickets are gone and most remaining options are resale. In this situation, last-minute price drops can happen if resellers lower their prices close to the show, but inventory is limited, so waiting is a gamble and best only if you are flexible about seat location.
What are tips to avoid overpaying for Orpheum Theater tickets?
To avoid overpaying, always compare total prices including fees across several marketplaces instead of buying the first ticket you see. Aim for mid-range balcony or rear floor sections that give a good view at a lower price than front-row seats, and use sites that highlight “best deals” so you can quickly spot tickets that are priced fairly compared with nearby options.
What is the seating like at The Orpheum Theater for a comedy show?
The Orpheum Theater has floor and balcony levels, so your view and price will depend on where you sit, but even balcony seats are relatively close compared with large arenas. Floor seats put you nearer to the stage, while balcony seats are usually cheaper and still offer clear sightlines and good sound for stand-up.
How should I plan for parking and transportation to The Orpheum Theater?
The Orpheum’s downtown State Street location means you should allow extra time for traffic, one-way streets, and finding a garage or lot nearby before the 7:30 PM showtime. To save money, consider using city parking ramps a short walk away, carpooling and splitting parking costs, or taking a bus or rideshare to avoid paying for premium event parking right by the venue.
