Billy Crystal doesn't disappoint
by Machey on 10/30/13State Theatre - MinneapolisI had really high expectations for this performance based on seeing Billy Crystal on TV and in movies for so many years - have loved his humor and storytelling. This performance was amazing. The first half left us in tears from laughing many times - how does he manage to remember all of that dialogue??? He spoke so quickly - yet clearly - but his pauses somehow allowed us all to process what he said. He just knows how to deliver a fast-paced and hilarious comedy show. The second half showed his more serious and thoughtful side, with stories, photos and pauses that were really touching. Coupled with the more light-hearted first half, it made the whole show feel complete. I was left with an ever deeper appreciation of Billy Crystal as both a performer and a man. He's a special talent.
