David Letterman

Get ready for an unmissable double dose of comedic brilliance as television legend David Letterman takes the intimate stage of the Ricardo Montalban Theatre for two extraordinary evenings during Netflix Is A Joke Fest 2026. This isn't just a comedy show — it's a rare opportunity to witness a living legend of late-night television share the spotlight with two of comedy's most beloved voices in an unpredictable, anything-goes format aptly titled 'This Better Be Funny.' On Wednesday, May 6th, Letterman joins forces with the wildly inventive John Mulaney — a pairing that promises sharp wit, storytelling mastery, and the kind of spontaneous chemistry that only happens when comedy greats collide. Then, on Friday, May 8th, Letterman reunites with the incomparable Martin Short for an evening guaranteed to overflow with charm, absurdist humor, and genuine warmth between two icons who know how to command a room. Nestled in the heart of Hollywood, the Ricardo Montalban Theatre provides an intimate yet electric setting that puts you close to the action. As part of the celebrated Netflix Is A Joke Fest, these shows sit at the crown jewel of the world's largest comedy festival — making each seat not just a ticket, but a front-row pass to comedy history in the making.
