Theo Von at Mohegan Sun Arena

Theodor Capitani von Kurnatowski, popularly known as Theo Von, tickles your funny bone with his distinctive way of comedy that is observationally touching on topics like everyday life, relationships, politics, and present events. He tends to showcase his wits and timing, usually surprising his audience.

Theo Von grew up in Covington, Louisiana. His professional career began when he was nineteen. He first starred on MTV's Road Rules: Maximum Velocity Tour in 2000, a reality TV show of strangers living in an RV truck. He gained success from the show and would later appear in its many seasons and iterations, winning two seasons. After his stint on Road Rules, Von competed in the fourth season of Comic Central's Last Comic Standing in 2006. He would win the votes of the competition's fans. His comedy career would grow from there. In 2009, Von popularized "crank texting" (sending texts to random numbers to start conversations), started his "crank texting" blog, and a year later, CollegeHumor began publishing his columns. In 2016, he had his first comedy special, "No Offense." This is followed by "Regular People" in 2021.

Theo Von headlines his "Return of the Rat" tour this year. One of his performances will be at the Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday, July 21. Get tickets now!
