Whether it’s an off-Broadway show, ballet, concert, or an evening of uproarious comedy, The Magnolia consistently delivers world-class entertainment experiences.

Paula Poundstone at The Magnolia

Paula Poundstone is an iconic comedian who has been a beloved figure since the 80s and a distinguished panelist on NPR’s #1-rated podcast Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me. Paula, celebrated for her HBO specials like Cats and Cops and Stuff, as well as her own weekly podcast Nobody Listens to Paula Poundstone, holds the honor of being the first female comic to host the White House Correspondents Dinner.

Paula Poundstone’s stand-up set promises an evening of infectious laughter, marked by her razor-sharp wit, spontaneity, and legendary crowd work. The performance kicks off at 7:30 PM, with doors opening at 6:30 PM, providing an opportunity to bask in The Magnolia’s scenic plaza, enjoy winter cocktails, and savor delectable offerings from food trucks.
