He is absolutely hilarious and a really down-to-earth guy in person. I highly recommend his show to anyone looking for a fun night out; he was worth every penny. As an aside, he is more than a comedian, he is a performer in the truest sense of the word. I will go back and see him every time he comes back to the Improv in the future.
His show is awesome. I never laughed as hard as I did when I saw Eric's show. This is my second experience seeing his show, and when he comes back to the Anaheim area, I will go again.
The other comedians were funnier than Eric Schwarts, we all thought.
The Improv offers a full-service bar and serves dinner, appetizers and dessert nightly. There is a 2-drink minimum per person (which can be fulfilled with alcoholic beverages, soda, coffee or dessert).
