An enjoyable time for all

An enjoyable fast moving show. Brian does a clean show and does nothing that would embarrass, humiliate or offend the participants. He's very gentle, looks after the subjects and is very approachable after the show.

There were only 21 people at the show which limited the number of participants onstage to 4. Despite this, Brian took them through many routines from being in an amusement park, car racing, horseback riding, being little fishies in the ocean, etc. Some of the routines kind of clunked but that was probably due to the low availability of subjects, thereby lowering the odds of having that one or two characters who would behave in the extreme.

Definitely an enjoyable time, particularly if someone in your group participates. Bring someone who drinks alcohol to get your $$$'s worth of the two drink minimum because you still get charged $5 each for non alcoholic beverages.
