Pretty funny stuff. But she didn't stay that long and ended really, really abruptly. I think the girl in the front row who wouldn't turn off her phone pissed her off. Her opening act Bridgett Everett was hilarious and wrong in every way! I
She was to busy ripping on Indy to remember any of her recycled jokes. I was really looking forward to this show after her comedy central stuff. When she walked off the stage 45 minutes early in a rush it left me feeling like she wanted to be there less than I did. I hope she doesn't come back.
Amy and Bridgette were hilarious, but the show was less than an hour and a half long. For the two tickets I bought, that's paying more than a dollar per minute. I enjoyed the show, but it should've been longer and I didn't consider it a value for the money.
Opening act Brigitte was unforgettable. Bizarre, like watcing a massive traffic accident... you just can't turn away! Then Amy was great, really hit her stride after 10 minutes. Surprisingly raunchy and funny and shocking. And just a little gorgeous :)
Amy was awesome. Her opening act Brigette Everett was completely insane. She definately gets the crowd going for Amy. Only thing I didn't care for was the abrupt ending to the show. But that's probably because I wanted more Amy!l
The show started a little late, around 8:15. It was over by 9:30 and that included the opening act. Short show for $45. The opening act was Bridget Everett. She was kind of funny, but in a "trying too hard" sort of way. It was funnier to watch the sign language interpreters sign the lyrics to her songs. Amy had a great set. Some of the material was similar to what I've heard from her before, but it was still good stuff. She was also having a lot of fun with the interpreters. The set just seemed short. At the end, she ran off the stage like she was being chased by a pack of Ramels. Not sure if that's normal or it something happened.
I highly recommend going to their show! It was so funny that I think I wet myself a little!
Great time! Amy and Bridgette were both HILARIOUS! !
An abrupt ending very early was not what we were expecting.
I would definitely recommend this show!!! I haven't laughed so hard in years!!! I personally think the opening act was far better than Amy though. I barely laughed with Amy and I couldn't stop laughing with the opening act. Now my husband thought Amy was great too. Just not as raunchy. Regardless, this was a great evening of humor and fun!! We would go again if possible!!!!
Amy Schumer and her opening act, Bridget Everett, where very entertaining. My daughter and I attended the show and laughed almost from beginning to end. Unfortunately, the show was entirely too short. It was supposed to start at 8pm, but actually started at 8:10pm. Amy came on stage around 8:30 and didn't even perform for a full hour! That was disappointing for the amount that was paid for her tickets. She is one funny lady, but I doubt I will see her again if she doesn't make it worth the money.
Event started at 8pm and was over by 915pm. Entire audience was shocked it ended so quick. Show was hilarious though!
I'm an Amy fan, but a 40-45 minute set, with what seemed like 10 minutes of it goofing on the sign language interpreters? The audience sat stunned when the lights came up - thinking that's it?!! Come on Amy, you gotta add more!
Overall performance was great. Definitely my kind of humor. Only disapointment in performance was I thought it was a little short. Would of loved her set to be a bit longer. Recommend sitting in row W or lower for I was in Z (view was awesome no problems with that) the chairs behind row W sucked hard and not comfortable three rows up looked much nicer.
Great comedy show. Amy was amazing. Bridgette was over the top.
Funniest woman alive right now.....by far!.....and her opening act was great as well
Amy Schumer did an amazing job at the Wilbur Theatre in Boston. I bought tickets as a surprise for my husband. We usually watch her shows on TV and when I saw she had a show in Boston it was perfect for a night out! I expected to have heard several of the jokes before, but there was one 1 joke that i remembered hearing before, so I have to say I was impressed with her material! She is hilarious and the theatre was great, I'd definitely go again!
She is by far the best female comedienne and in my top 5 comedians today. Can't wait to see her again.
amazing show! she is hysterical. love the wilbur ! such a great night!
Amy's humor is definitely VERY X rated. Not meant for sitting with one's 19 year son...for sure. However, sitting with 10 folks in the range of 50-70 (which our crowd was) most thought she was funny. Some said she was vile. Personally, she made me laugh right out loud more often than not. Her voice was difficult to hear for the older ones in our group. (Mostly the men). I enjoyed the show, probably wouldn't go again...been there done that type of thing.
