This was a two hour show, (with intermission) that began with a hilarious skit about someone being allergic to pie cream and it just gets better from there. Great cast! Great improv timing. Great laughs. I was very impressed and loved most of the skits. My favorite was the switching babies.Written on Aug 31 2010

Time and time again, The Groundlings deliver! Took my 17 year old daughter and three of her friends and we ALL were laughing throughout the show. "Touchdown" was our unanimous favorite skit. The assorted improvs were also a lot of fun.... I would have liked those skits to go on a little longer because they get funnier the more the actors get into the scenario. We attended the 8:00 show, my guess is that the 10:00 show may go a little longer and get a bit more raucous... next time we will pick the later show. My entire group is eager to go back... soon!Written on Oct 04 2010
