I picked this place for my girls and I to come to after we had dinner to celebrate my 18th birthday. We all had doubts about this place, being that comedy is difficult and after all a group of 18 year olds (who already had doubts) is a tough crowd to please. Turns out we had a great time !... More

We took our teenage kids to the show. The comedy was clean but hilarious. I have been to a lot of comedy clubs and this improv show was very good in comparison to others.

We went here last year when visiting NYC and had great time. So this year we wanted to return when we planned our next NYC trip. We still think the show is a great value and is great for all ages. But the cast was different this time and we didn't enjoy as much as last year. The show has... More

We went to 3 comedy clubs this past weekend in NYC and this was the best. The improv was fantastic. Like who's line is it anyway" Our 13 yo son loved it.

We live in NYC and are always looking for ways to enjoy our city with kids. Went with our 10 and 12 year old children and we all laughed - a lot. Great fun and affordable. Highly recommend.

We do a NYC weekend with our kids every year since they were little ~ now 15 and 19 we just didn't feel like seeing a Broadway show...... saw the reviews on Trip Advisor and thought we would give this a try. Did NOT disappoint. We went to 9:30 show Saturday night after dinner ~ the comedians were perfectly 'in... More

We visit the NYC area few times a year to visit family and are always looking for new things to do. Discovered this while perusing trip advisor, and were not let down! Professionally done, very funny improv show that is fun for the entire family with no worries of blue material. Given how well done the entertainment is, I also... More

Excellent entertainment for any age. Went with my wife & 14yo son & we laughed so hard we were almost crying. These people do an excellent job and worth seeing them whilst in NYC. We went to the 7:30pm show on the way back to our apartment & it was a full house - lucky we called ahead! Very vibrant,... More

I went with my daughters, aged 18 and 23, and we had a FABULOUS time! We went to the earlier show, 7:30, and there was a decent-sized crowd - about 40 people. I like the premise, which is 2 improv teams battling each other, and the crowd votes by applause. It's a great show for any age. We chose it... More

We went with another family and our 27 year-old cousin. Kids ranged in age from 10 to 14. Parents, cousin and kids all had laugh out loud fun. Its tough finding things in the city that can entertain tweens and teen-agers and keeps it clean. We had dinner and hit the 7:30 show. It was energetic and tons of laughs... More
