JERRY SEINFELD ON TOUR:
Whether he's delivering hilarious one-liners from his iconic television series or sharing jokes with fans on stage, Jerry Seinfeld has had audiences cracking up for over 25 years with his legendary sense of humor. An internationally recognized household name for his eponymous '90s sitcom, dubbed by TV Guide as "the greatest television program of all time," Seinfeld is also a brilliant stand-up act, never failing to deliver outrageously comical performances. As one of comedy central's "100 Greatest Standups of All Time," there's little doubt he'll have audiences in stitches with his witty, relatable humor on tour in 2014.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Jerry Seinfeld got his start in 1976 at a local open mic night in New York City, but it wasn't until several early-'80s appearances on the Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson that he reached mainstream recognition. As creator and co-writer of Emmy Award-winning sitcom Seinfeld, he appeared in every episode of the show's nine-season span. Since his days on the show, Seinfeld has launched his own web series titled Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, and put his comedy in writing with the 1993 book Seinlanguage. With more than two decade of stand-up gigs under his belt, Jerry Seinfeld will have fans falling out of their seats in hysterics on his 2014 comedy tour.
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"GREAT show from beginning to end. Jerry continues to be extremely smart with his comedy–he has such a unique perspective on everything...I laughed throughout and was even brought to tears at one point. Highly recommended..."
"You know it's been a good comedy show when your face hurts from laughing the whole time. Every bit was great and the time flew by! Totally worth the money because it was a fantastic experience."
"He is so brilliant and makes everyday observations hysterical. Jerry is MUST see for everyone!"
What a disappointing show, Jerry is very boring without the gang from the tv show.
My husband and I had a wonderful time at the Jerry Seinfeld show. Our sides were aching before Jerry hit the stage; due to the hilarious Larry Miller. Jerry had high energy and his jokes were relevant. I completely enjoyed the concert and would go again in a second.
Wonderful evening! Come on....it's Seinfeld! Had just picked my artist son, up from the airport.. It was a great introduction to our unique downtown/ urban experience. Great memory!
VERY funny! Exactly what you would anticipate. Not like the sit com but similar enough to not dissappoint!
Really enjoyed the show and venue, especially the opening act
I've never watched a Jerry Seinfeld show. I've seen little bits and pieces of it, but I never watched one of his shows. I didn't know what to expect. I was told that if I never watched one of his television shows, I wouldn't understand his style of comedy. They were wrong, I understood everything Jerry was saying. Not only did I understand his jokes but I laughed so hard, my eyes started to tear. I would highly recommend Jerry Seinfeld and the money is well worth it.
Yet again Jerry didn't disappoint. His unique sense of humor and quirky views of life held true to what we have come to expect from Mr. Seinfeld. His warmth and interaction with the audience left me liking him even more than I did before. I promise you'll be glad you had the Jerry experience.....
Jerry Seinfeld was fabulous! I laughed through the entire show...tears, too! Would love to see him, again, if he comes back to Portland.
I have seen Seinfeld three times in Portland. It is always very entertaining and you LOL throughout his shows. Non-repetitive, always fun. I will see him again next time he's in town.
Didn't like the warmup act. Jerry was just ok. Expected more for the $$.
He put on a great show; very animated, he loves to perform. was very honest. the coolest part was when he opened it up to Q and A and allowed the audience to ask, "anything they want."
I surprised my husband with tickets to the show and we had the BEST time! Loved his jokes about kids, marriage, and just every day family stuff. This was our second time to see him and hope to see him again one day!
This was, hands down, the best comedy show I have ever been to!! Jerry is at his most cynical and he wears it well. "He's old, he's rich, and he's tired"....and incredibly hilarious.
Entering the theatre, the atmosphere was exactly as it should be, from the Frank Sinatra music to the dimmed lights and multi-colored spotlights. Seinfeld really delivered a great show and really seemed to please the audience, leaving with a standing ovation. He even came back out and answered some audience questions.
He had great energy. His performance was funny from beginning to end. I could watch him again & again. When I left my cheeks hurt.
A dream of mine came last night was I saw Jerry Seinfeld in Little Rock. He put on amazing performance he talked about cell phones, black berries, his wife and children. Jerry Seinfeld was very animated on the stage, he would walk around all over the stage and even got on the stage floor. The opening act was Jerry's friend Larry Miller. Larry was very funny too.
very funny, second time to see him....will go again, again and again
After many years of enjoying the sitcom show a seeing his stand up on TV it was a wonderful treat to get to see him in person. As hard as it is to beleive he is even funnier in person. He looked great, was energetic and kept us laughing the whole time. It is pure genius the way he makes you laugh at everyday observations. It was a great treat also to have Larry Miller open for him, I have been a big fan of his also for many years. I will definitely see him again if he returns to Little Rock. Thanks for the many years of laughs Jerry! I look forward to many more.
Jerry did what he does best: take the little things we all know and do and think and delve deep into our minds to express the things we all think to ourselves but don't actually come out and say aloud.
My husband and I laughed the whole time. His humor is very up to date and gets to the core of issues and what makes things funny. We are so glad we went.
