Comedian John Mulaney has postponed three scheduled shows in Minneapolis after a tragic shooting involving an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer left the city shaken and raised serious safety concerns.

The announcement comes in the wake of the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a 37‑year‑old mother, earlier this week, prompting Mulaney to reconsider performing amid the turmoil.

Mulaney was slated to perform three nights, from January 9 to January 11, at The Armory as part of his Mister Whatever tour. In an Instagram statement posted on January 8, the comedian explained that ongoing unrest and grief in Minneapolis made it “unfair to the audience” to proceed.

“What’s happening in your city is heartbreaking,” Mulaney wrote, “I hate to postpone shows in a town going through such awful challenges and such grief, because it feels unfair to the audience.”

The rescheduled dates for the Minneapolis shows are April 10, April 11 and April 12, and Mulaney said all previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new dates. Fans unable to attend the rescheduled performances can request refunds through their original point of purchase or Ticketmaster.

The postponements follow the fatal shooting of Good by an ICE officer during an immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis, an incident that has sparked national outrage and local protests. Good, a mother of three, was reportedly shot as bystanders filmed the incident, which has reignited debates over immigration policy and law enforcement tactics.
