What a fun night! We knew Cecily Strong to be so funny from Saturday Night Live and loved all the variation in her performance at Cobb's. Especially the Cleopatra-rug-role. Her friends were a lot of fun too. The girl with her did some really perfect and hilarious faces in the improv scenes and the guy was an awesome off-the-cuff rapper.
I enjoyed the MC better than the top act I paid to see. I have been to many comedy shows and I was expecting stand up comedy. We brought 4 friends. For the price of the tickets and then the drinks it was a very expensive evening for not really laughing that much. It was a big disappointment. there is no doubt these comedians are talented, it just was not what i was expecting.
