Great entertainment...and a bargain, too!

by threefifteenam

I saw a recent CCL show with a large group of people, ranging in age from 11 to 55...EVERYONE LOVED IT!

The performers were incredibly sharp, witty and professional....the venue was small, so everyone in the audience had the opportunity to participate. I could not believe the level of entertainment we got for such a reasonable price...beats anything else we've done in months.

• Pros: Hilarious, Intelligent, Authentic

Funny! Funny! Funny!

by ComedyCritic

I see a lot of comedy, mostly Improv, in NYC, Chicago and elsewhere. Let me tell you, these guys are the real deal. They are funny, smart and topical. Try as I did to stump them with my suggestions, they kept hitting the ball out of the park. They even created an entire musical based on a story told by an audience member -- me!

• Pros: Hilarious Comedy

Best Comedy Show In Town

by fun guy

I see a lot of comedy shows, everything from Broadway to little holes in the wall in Brooklyn. This is the best show I've seen in years. The actors are quick-witted, and they actually have interesting, informed point of views. They kept me and my guests laughing all night long. The highlight is a 20 minute musical, complete with overture, songs and book, that they make up on the spot after talking to a customer about a recent event in their lives! The price is right, and this may just be the best deal in town. The club is cozy and friendly. Who could ask for anything more?

• Pros: Funny and affordable
• Cons: Could use a better drink menu

Not worth your time

by quasibuddha

I went there on a thursday night with my date. I'd read reviews on this website which said the show was hilarious. So I decided to give it a try instead of going to Comic Strip Live as I usually do. Well, to put it simply, very bad decision. This place stinks!

For starters, there were only about 10 people in the audience. Of those I'm quite sure 2 were planted to laugh at every lame joke and act as though they were having a grand ol time. The skits weren't funny, the song and dance numbers were horrible. I sat through the show for 1 1/2 hours wondering why I'd just burned $60. Booze selection was very limited as well so I couldn't even drown my disgust in alcohol!

• Pros: It ended!
• Cons: Everything else
