I have been looking for a comedy show that made me laugh until I cried. This is the sixth comedy show I've been to since November and it is the only one that gave me what I was looking for- that good cathartic soul cleansing laughter. Unfortunately it was announced by the emcee that Craig Shoemaker will stop performing stand-up at the end of this year so if you get the chance to see him I suggest you do!
This is the only comedian I have seen where I wished he would stop about three quarters of the way through the show. I laughed so much my mouth hurt. Dad humor, sex humor, seventies drug humor and of course The Lovemaster, this show had everything.
Craig's show was the best comedy show I have ever seen. He went for a solid two hours after the warm up act. Every bit was tremendous!
Two hours of non-stop laughter with Craig who spins tales with great old-school references of growing up in Philly to the present day craziness of parenting. All of our friends loved him too! Thanks for the laughs, 'Shoe'!
5 stars for Craig himself, if I could give 6 I would. 3 stars for the bathroom situation, need more stalls badly.
Do yourself a favor and go see Craig. I haven't missed a chance to see him on stage since I discovered him at the Ice House in Pasadena in the early 90's. I've never seen a comedian who makes me laugh more. One guy at the table next to me last year actually fell out of his chair from laughing so hard. The Love Master is a staple and never gets old. His Mayberry character impersonations will have you peeing your pants (hopefully you're old enough to remember The Andy Griffith Show.) And what a nice guy! If you get a chance to talk to him after the show, do it. He loves his fans and always takes time to take a picture with you afterwards.
Craig Shoemaker was incredible. He went on for 2 hours!!! He was continuously funny and engaging. The Canyon Club, on the other hand, not so good. They lost my dinner reservations even though i had made them on Dec 18th and confirmed about 4 weeks ago. We were given seats in the back. :( My Friends LOVED Craig and we will see him again when he performs locally.
2 hours! Are you kidding? I have never been to a comedy show where the performance went 2 hours. This guy loves to make people laugh. The group that I went with was in 100% agreement that there was not a moment during the performance that the gut did not hurt. The material is current, just the right touch of raunch, audience participation without too much humiliation and age appropriate. Just as he said that we would do at home after the show, I imitated him all night long! Highly recommend that you see this guy. Great Show!!!!
Hilarious! Unfortunately he did almost exact same show as last year, same venue.
CS never fails!!! Crisp > Intelligent > Great Comedy. This is my third show and he entertained magnificently.
We laughed all night, and days later, I find I'm still laughing! Craig's heart and goodness shine through the whole show, so whether he's laughing at everyday life, or the raw, riotous and sensual, it's all funny . . . just plain funny and ever so much fun. Thanks Craig!!
Craig is still funny after all these years! I remember seeing him the first time almost 20 years ago and I laughed just as hard at this show as I did at that very first one. Everyone needs to experience the Lovemaster!
Boyfriend and I went here for Valentine's Day. The show was spectacular. The jokes were clever, some were slapstick but overall it was absolutely hilarious. We share different senses of humor and both of us roared with laughter throughout the night. I really have developed respect for Craig's comic style. Highly recommended.
Criag was at the top of his game tonight. I haven't seen Craig in about 10 years. He was great then and only better today. My cheeks hurt leaving this show. Way to go Craig can't wait to see you again!!!!
The best show! We laughed for over 2 hours - Honestly, Craig has the best live act. Hands down.
I've seen Craig Shoemaker live before, and he exceeded that event, even. He had us laughing for two solid hours - that's quite a feat for any comedian. I'm not sure what happened, but he had no opener, and he even had to introduce himself. Yet, he was so comfortable with the whole thing, and it started out the evening for us in a humorous way. The Triple Door has excellent food, a nice wine list (and sommelier), and decent service. We truly had a blast!
We've gone to Craig's show every time he's been in Seattle. The Triple Door is a great venue for him. Craig kept going for two hours, keeping us all in stitches. I was concerned that I'd have heard a lot of his jokes and stories before, but he gave us almost all new material. He fed off the crowd and not only was he entertaining us, we were entertaining him! And, just like every time I've seen him, the audience gave him a standing ovation at the end. You won't find many shows that are as fun or as reasonably priced as Craig Shoemaker's-- our tickets were $20 each for excellent seats. Plus, the food at the Triple Door is outstanding. I hope Craig returns to this venue...and soon! Put on your calendar to see The Lovemaster the next time he's in town--you'll love his show!
Craig is the best comedy show of all time. I never leave disappointed no matter how many times I've seen him perform. I always tell first time goers to his show can wear diapers or depends. you literally laugh from the first moment of his show to the last moment. I love how he incorporates local events and culture into his act no matter where I have seen him. this is my seventh or 8 time of attending 1 of his shows. his routine ever gets old
I have seen Craig Shoemaker numerious times in the last 20 or so years. Always a great time. My face hurt from laughing so much. Come back to Seattle soon.
I saw Craig Shoemaker years ago in Hermosa and loved him. He was incredibly funny and held the audience's attention for over 2 hours. I had no idea he had gone so long until he mentioned it - what a fun evening!
