About John Caparulo's Mad Cap Comedy

John Caparulo's Mad Cap Comedy Live

A comedian known for his laid-back, made-in-the-Midwest delivery and his droll take on marriage, fatherhood and daily life, John Caparulo is now one of the funniest performers on the Las Vegas Strip. Audiences get what they're after every time he takes to the stage for Mad Cap Comedy at Harrah's Las Vegas.

John Caparulo became the Strip's newest comedy headliner when he debuted in The Comedy Lineup at Harrah's Las Vegas in 2018. His weekly residency marks another milestone in a career that's included standout performances on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn, a recurring spot as Chelsea Handler's "under-dressed everyman" on Chelsea Lately on E!, and a breakout appearance on Vince Vaughn's Wild West Comedy Tour.

Caparulo made more fans with his Comedy Central specials Comedy Central Presents: John Caparulo and John Caparulo: Meet Cap. Released on CD and DVD in 2013, his special John Caparulo: Come Inside Me is a showcase of his wickedly sarcastic but always relatable brand of humor.

John Caparulo's Mad Cap Comedy Background

Born and bred in Ohio, John Caparulo is a seasoned comedian whose dry, no-nonsense Midwestern sensibility endears him to audience members of all kinds. He began his comedy career performing in clubs in Cleveland and Pittsburgh in the late ‘90s before coming to Hollywood to hone his skills on stage and work the door at the legendary Comedy Store.

Caparulo's breakout performance at Montreal's Just for Laughs in 2003 led to spots on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn. His profile continued to rise with his regular appearances on Chelsea Lately and his live performances on the Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Next Generation, as well as Vince Vaughn's Wild Comedy Tour.

In 2008, Caparulo's first full-length special, John Caparulo: Meet Cap premiered on Comedy Central. His second special, Come Inside Me, was released on CD and DVD in 2013.

Teaming with Caesars Entertainment, he brought his droll, sarcastic and consistently hilarious brand of comedy to the Strip in 2018 for John Caparulo's Mad Cap Comedy, a weekly residency show at Harrah's Las Vegas.

    Disappointing

    by I on 10/20/19

    We try to see 2 or 3 comedy shows when we visit Vegas. On our recent trip, in addition to John Caparulo, we saw Daniel Tosh (at the Mirage, a hilarious, professional show) and were going to see Nick Thune but Thune cancelled his appearance at Kimmel's club. Caparulo's show is in a small venue and Caesars offers heavily discounted tickets. For the Wednesday show, the theatre was perhaps 1/4 full and 5 to 10 people left early. It felt poorly paced and that he was rambling. At times, it felt he was winging it and had not prepared a real set. My impression was that he was struggling to remember what he was supposed to say next. Most of the laughs came from the same few people and he would throw out a few extra expletives here and there when things landed flat to try to evoke a laugh or two. It started late and was less than an hour. I have a hard time believing the star rating given to this show on this site and the fact that tickets are so heavily discounted and there were so many empty seats. I give it 2 stars for the 5 minutes of decent material.

    Caparulo gives amazing performance

    by ok on 9/29/19

    My friends and I wanted a casual, fun night out on The Strip. We decided to go to a comedy show, but since we're not big drinkers we didn't want to go to a comedy club that makes you buy multiple drinks. My friend remembered John from a Showtime show and was very excited to see that he has a residency at Harrah's. I can't begin to describe what a fun night we had watching him. He was absolutely hysterical for well over an hour. I can't wait to bring my family when they come visit. He also takes free photos after the show for everyone. He was so humble and kind. I hope this man knows how much he is genuinely loved by so many people.

    Outstanding

    by L. W. on 7/9/19House of Tape at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    We purchased the VIP tickets, received front row. Honestly, was not needed, very small and intimate venue. Cappy was hilarious. Great interaction with the crowd. Even a meet and greet after the show. Worth every penny. Next time in Vegas, will go again.

    A must see comic.

    by Mario S. on 2/25/19House of Tape at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    John isn't one of the biggest names out there but there is a reason why he has his own show, featured on several comedy shows and talk shows and has several specials out. His sense of humor and personal stories make his show great. He keeps a lot of his old jokes that made him famous themes going but finds new and hilarious ways to give them new life. Family, marriage, parenting and daily life are all brought to the forefront in his hilarious stand up. The person I attended with had never seen his stand up and were delightfully pleased by his comic genius. Meeting him after the show gives his performance an even bigger heartfelt enjoyment. This is one show i think many should see- especially with how reasonably priced his tickets are.

    by L. on 1/24/19House of Tape at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    Overall the show was just ok, some parts were great, but it seemed like it was hard for him to get into a rhythm. We thought maybe he was testing new materials? The flow just seemed off.

    John Caparulo was F~U~N~N~Y!!!!!

    by D. S. on 1/1/19House of Tape at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    It was more intimate than I expected. Smaller venue than I thought but so glad we went. As a VIP we had reserved seating in the first or second row.

    Changed venue to all General Admission chairs

    by LovesStandUp on 9/27/18Harrah's Showroom at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    Show was funny. I can't take anything away from John's performance, but Harrahs changed the venue. The new venue is General Admission only, but they are still selling booth seating online (I checked the next day). We purchased booth seats at a higher price, but then were given wooden, foldable seats like you would see at an outdoor weddding or a banquet hall.. There is no table service as there are no tables. They have a limited portable bar set up in the back. So serve yourself and sit shoulder to shoulder with strangers. We were not impressed. We used to hit the Improv every visit to Vegas. Can't say we will be back after getting hosed on this one. The show was funny, but the venue sucked.

    Cap good, venue terrible

    by srjewett72 on 9/9/18Harrah's Showroom at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    I love Cap and he didn't disappoint. The huge disappointment was Ticketmaster. The venue they showed was inaccurate. I paid for upgraded assigned seats. We paid before our trip because we didn't want the show to sell out. When we arrived, it was general seating and we ended up sitting in the back. It cost extra money for the upgrade which was just money in their pocket. Would have arrived earlier if we had known we had to for better seats. Was a big bummer and took away from our excitement over the show.

    Caparulo Captured Harrah's

    by Ponygrrrl on 7/8/18Harrah's Showroom at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    This was a show we wanted to see for a long time. A true professional, John Caparulo wowed us with clever new insight into his wife & daughter keeping the jokes coming with his special brand of sekf-directed caustic wit. Very little old material in this night's show. Maybe 2 brief jokes, otherwise all new. Seats were great, sound was super... he should be selling this show out on a regular basis. If you have an opportunity to go to Vegas, don't miss it! By the way, he also came out and took pictures with us and was genuinely happy to meet fans.

    Caplets in Person are AWESOME!

    by JoeSlots on 7/3/18Harrah's Showroom at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    We were surprised at how much we enjoyed Mark Ellis. He was first up with John Caparulo, but honestly could have been the headliner! Not to take anything away from CAP! We traveled from Irving, TX to Las Vegas on my 60th BD to enjoy the fun of Vegas. When asked what I wanted to do that evening, I said "Go to see CAP!!!". The bonus??? Getting to also meet Mrs. CAP! One weekend earlier in the year we had bad weather and were shut-ins. We watched Caplets for 2 days straight! Yes, we lead an exciting life! But for sure you should go see CAP when in Vegas! And we will definitely see Mark Ellis again!

    Good show!

    by ImfromTexas on 7/2/18Harrah's Showroom at Harrah's Las Vegas - Las Vegas

    The venue was better than anticipated. Very clean. Was upgraded upon arrival. Reasonably priced drinks. I liked the opening act, Mark Ellis. John Caparulo started a little slow but he quickly hit his stride and was absolutely hilarious. Good value for the price of the tickets.
