It wasn't as funny as I thought it was going to be but I did get some good laughs in. The main actor was very funny so I was glad he was in all the skits. I guess it all depends on the suggestions from the audience and there was a group in the first two rows that kept giving terrible suggestions. One recommendation is to have the actors get a variety of suggestions from a different members of the audience.

There was one very funny guy in the show that totally made it. He was so funny that we stayed for the next show but he wasn't in. The second show was not that great.

Very funny!!

Funny..Smart and Unpredictable!

The cast was overall, very talented. We went for a birthday outing for my friend and they incorporated her name into a lot of hilarious scenes. We laughed out loud for much of the show. They even were brutal to a group of hecklers! Don't come in late unless you want to be picked on. Only problems, the host refered to one in our party as a "B" in an attempt to be funny. I'm not quite sure why he thought it would be. I had to let him know that it wasn't nice or appreciated. There were also some lude jokes - I know it's a late night sketch, but I could have done without those for sure. Fortunately it wasn't overwhelming. I also noticed, the crowd was much more engaged when the jokes were less offensive. I would say it was really good - great if they clean it up a bit.

It was terrific, so creative, and funny!!! The actors are all very talented, and we would highly recommend the late night show as a great cap to an evening.

This was a really great, high energy show. A lot of audience participation & it kept you wanting more at the end.
