Comedian John Mulaney’s single life goal is to make everyone laugh — and not just the people in the audience. Mulaney worked on Saturday Night Live for a few seasons, and he helped create Stefon, the deranged nightclub reviewer played by Bill Hader. He worked on scripts with Hader before rehearsal and just before he took the stage to command “Weekend Update,” Mulaney would sneak references to Taylor Negron and a shaved lion that looks like Mario Batali onto the cue cards, in an effort to crack Hader during the live show. Once, he handed Hader an autographed picture of Taylor Negron right before the cameras started rolling, to give him an idea of what he had coming. If he’s willing to go to such lengths uninvited, just imagine what he can do when he’s payed to amuse you. The standup comedian, SNL writer and star of Fox’s Mulaney will perform at the Majestic Theatre (1925 Elm St.) at 7:30 p.m. Thursday. Tickets are $39 at ticketmaster.com.
