About

Aspiring musicians, singers, dancers, comedians, rappers and spoken word artists try their best to please the audiences that can make them an Apollo Legend. Get ready to cheer or jeer as you decide who stays and who gets booted off stage. At Amateur Night, you tell the performers to be good or be gone!

Amateur Night at the Apollo is hosted by the comedian Capone. Each show begins with a festive pre-party featuring video and music by DJ Jess. Also, keep a lookout for master impressionist C.P. Lacey, the resident Executioner who sweeps bad talent off the stage.

    Well worth the ticket price

    Amazing show! Watched it on TV since I was a child. Amazing to be in the theater. Well worth the ticket price. Crowd interaction added to the experience.

    Waste of time

    by Polinachka on 10/17/15Apollo Theater - New York

    It was a total waste of time. One hour of actual show was strange thing to three hours. There were no good performers and the whole show is a joke. I would never recommend this show to anyone.

    The Apollo, a truly iconic theater, and Amateur Night a classic event formed the backdrop for a wonderful night and experience. I saw many complete families and they were not at all out of place.

    by RAlexis on 9/19/15Apollo Theater - New York

    Wow! Everything was so well orchestrated! Every detail of this event was planned and executed to have you rolling in the aisles laughing or on your feet dancing! Took my mom and a younger girlfriend, we were 20's, 30's and none of your business! All of us had an absolutely fantastic time. Going again!

    My first time at the Apollo with family...

    by 10yrsold2013 on 8/1/15Apollo Theater - New York

    Where 1,500 people get to cheer you on or boo you off the stage - It was fun to watch and see the participation of the audience once we were prepped with what our parts were to be for the duration of the show. More people than not got into it and cheered or booed louder than needed... The winner was hands down, although a bit of competition with the runner up. jussayin'

    A fun filled night!

    by Tugar on 7/29/15Apollo Theater - New York

    This was a fantastic night of entertainment. It was a great show from the opening act to the final selection of the winner for the evening. There were only a few act that deserved to be booed. One of the contestants sang a well known song and included in the lyrics his version which was a chorus of "I believe, I believe, I believe". When the MC, who was a comedian, came back out he kept repeating the chorus. He then continued to repeat the chorus in versions of Hispanic, Jamaican, and several other languages. I was laughing so hard my stomach and sides hurt.

    Had a great time!

    by Deion on 7/27/15Apollo Theater - New York

    The host Capone is very entertaining. Many of the performers were talented. The DJ kept the crowd entertained pre-show & during intermission. The live band is fabulous. The Executioner & opening act singer were entertaining.
