John Mulaney

Stand-up comedian John Mulaney is stopping by American Airlines Center on Friday night on his “From Scratch” tour. Formerly a writer at Saturday Night Live and a member of the show’s exclusive Five-Timers Club, Mulaney is also known for his Netflix specials New In Town and The Comeback Kid.

The duo is known for indie hits like “Silver Soul” and “Master of None.” Tickets are available here.

214Selena

On Saturday, Four Corners Brewing Co. is hosting a 214Selena Market at the Cedars brewery from 2 pm to 10 pm.
