As a former stand-up comic, I was excited to have the opportunity to see Jon in an onstage, one man show. I've only been exposed to his incredible wit and intelligence thru The Daily Show and various interviews. How would it translate? Would he be too overtly political? Did he have range beyond The Daily Show? The answer to the these questions can be presented as follows:
Insightful, perceptive, thought-provoking, sidesplittingly, aching jaw inducing, laugh out loud, tears in the eyes, hysterical!!! Absolutely BRILLIANT! His act ran the gamut from politics to the enviroment, religion, family relationships and world and human events, consistently funny and perceptive. I've seen many great comics live in my life from Sam Kinnison and Eddie Murphy to Robin Williams, but last night at Chrysler Hall with Jon Stewart rates right up there as one of the most entertaining, endorphin triggering evenings my wife and I have ever experienced! Thank you, Jon, for a great time, a real treat!
