Through his relentlessly punchy writing and expert delivery, Mark Normand is quickly becoming one of the most talked about comedians on the scene. He most recently self-released a one-hour special "Out To Lunch" on YouTube, which has quickly amassed over 2.4 million views. An extremely prolific stand-up, he previously had a one-hour and a half hour Comedy Central special and has made an unparalleled seven appearances on "Conan," three appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon," and one appearance on both "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and "The Late Late Show with James Corden." Mark can also be heard on his multiple appearances on "The Joe Rogan Experience," dubbed by Jerry Seinfeld as the "best young up and coming comic," or on his own podcast "Tuesdays with Stories."
Born and raised in New Orleans, surprisingly to two normal parents, he spent most of his childhood making short films and wetting the bed.
One of best stand up shows I’ve ever attended. Opening act was fantastic too!
Intelligent, gutsy jokes. The crowd did not stop laughing for more than 5 seconds. Truly a comedic genius and talented artist. Would 10/10 recommend seeing him live. Meridian Hall, was also a perfect venue for the show. Crisp and clear audio, perfect sized room. Not too big, not too small. The opener of the show was also a 10/10. Truly a 5 star experience.
A great show and you get the Mark Normand you'd expect! The opener was also great!
I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. His opening act, Shaun Murphy, was great, Mark was hilarious. We laughed the whole time we were there - my face hurts.. I go to many big name stand up shows but this tops all.
Mark Normand was hilarious. And the seating was incredible. Personal yet spacious. Would love to see more comedy shows at this venue and would love to see Mark Normand again
One of the funniest comedy shows I've ever been to! Can't wait to see him again.
By the time the openers left the stage, Mark was on promptly with his trademark opening remarks. He went into jokes about Canada and Toronto, and peppered new material I hadn’t heard before throughout the set. A good portion of it were jokes and bits I’ve heard before, but know he’s likely rounding the end of of his tour and going through jokes that fit the progression of topics he’s rifling through as they become applicable, jumping from joke to joke, topic to topic with impeccable accuracy. Even the show itself was almost precisely one hour long to the second from when he hit the stage to when he said goodnight. I’ve sought out most of the clips from his shows online and know he’s been touring his routine since Covid, (I had tickets to the December show in 2021 which was postponed) so it came as no surprise that there was maybe 1/3 of the show that was new unheard material, but that in itself exceeded my expectations and the jokes-per-minute and timing in which he always delivers his material alone was more than worth the $50 something dollars. I was more than satisfied seeing him, as he’s a comedian I’ve admired for 5 or so years and it was great to see him doing his thing just as he always seems to do. I greatly look forward to seeing his new routine, and am very grateful to have heard some of the new material at this show I imagine will be in it. Thank you Mark for your dedication to your craft and developing and sharing your gift of quick-witted analogy with us all. Comedy, you really do it!
He told jokes and then we laughed and then he told more jokes.
Mark Normand is a killer comedian! Jokes and premises come at you fast and furious, and no boundaries! In 10-20 years he will be looked at as a legend of comedy so see him immediately!
Non stop laughs. Hes super quick. I was blown away by his talent. On an aside, his two openers were "meh" but who know who put them on stage. Luckily they werent on long. Then mark exploded on stage. My cheeks hurt!
I was annoyed the ticket said 7pm but doors only opened at 730 and the show started at 8. I'd prefer if things were a bit clearer. Also, entering the show there was no security beyond scanning tickets, which I felt was lazy. Anyone could have brought anything into the show with them. As for the show - it was a good show but I felt the hecklers were a bit much at the end. Mark did a decent job dealing with them. Didn't like the "ask the audience" portion at all and wish Mark had stuck to telling his own jokes instead of including the crowd. People yelling "Trudeau is a bum" and "Andrew Tate is a good guy" was annoying the say the least.
Even funnier than expected, was a thrill to hear a bunch of brilliant new content from Mark Normand. The openers were amazing as well, Chris Lock had us crying laughing. All-around a great time.
... and whiter! Great jokes, all killer, no filler.
Mark was brilliant! and the opening comedians did a good job. The lineup outside was a bummer. Let people in! They might eat and drink a bit more even.
One of my favourite comedians and he delivered! Openers were fantastic and Mark absolutely slayed. Great show. Worth every penny
Mark was amazing, haven't laughed this hard in awhile. Would totally go again!
One of the best comedians working today! Lots of laughs.
Venue was great. Wish they had a better drink selection. As for Mark, I've been following him for 5 years now and my expectations were very high. Mark not only met those expectations, he absolutely killed! It was non stop laughs and it gave me a new appreciation for how good he is at his craft! He's also nice enough to take photos with his fans after the show!
7pm was the listed start time and we arrived at 6:45. The doors to the actual theatre were not opened until 7:40 so until then we had to stand as there were hundreds of people there. The actual show did not start until after 8. There is no reason that information couldn’t be included. High school students could do a better job organizing a show, I know because I have done it, pretty pathetic job guys. Mark was great.
Mark Normand honestly is one of the best and funniest comics alive. Fantastic show, absolutely did not disappoint on any level. If you get a chance to see him, do it! Comedy!
