NPR's Wait Wait Don't Tell Me Tickets

Thoroughly enjoyed seeing Wait Wait Don't Tell Me being recorded! It was fantastic.

Good, if somewhat scripted, banter, though I couldn't understand some of what the Irish comedienne was saying [better mic and/or enunciation]. Would have been nice to have the Trinity security folks helping us cross the street from parking and directing parking too at the beginning of the even, though they did a bit better at the end. Was hoping for Paula Poundstone, but the traveling road show was really good and to have Dan Rather as the special guest was amazing! Jog on! That said, this whine would have gone better with cheese, as I would go again and highly recommend seeing this great event and great folks anytime. Please return to SA, BEFORE the next 21 year cycle!

The show was a blast. It was brilliant and bright and fun! Thank you for coming to San Antonio.

It was fascinating to watch how a radio show comes together. So much more dialog occurs than what makes it onto the Saturday morning show. Dan Rather was an amazing guest! Only disappointment of the evening was parking. I wish Laurie Auditorium and the Alamo Stadium would be able to avoid scheduling high traffic events on the same night.

I had a great time at Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me!! The Laurie Auditorium was the perfect venue, and all seats provided a good view and good acoustics. Loved seeing and hearing Dan Rather, an icon of journalism. Can’t wait til they come back!

What great fun it was to see this show live and to watch how they make the show work. Also fantastic to have Dan Rather as their guest.

The production quality of this show is top-notch. Peter and Bill were joined by panelists Maeve Higgins, Alonzo Bowden, and Negin Farsad, who were all devilishly funny. Our special guest was the legendary Dan Rather! The crew kept the show moving and lively. The venue was beautiful and visibility of the stage was great. The only negative was parking...the campus covered and open lots were small and completely filled. We had to park out on one of the streets about 10 minutes away from the theater, which I had not anticipated.

I'm a long time listener/fan of Wait, Wait and have always wanted to attend a live taping. Finally seeing the show in person was a great experience and was neat to 'see' what we all hear every week. I'd highly encourage attendance at least once!

Attending Wait Wait has been on my Bucket List for ages. So glad I had the opportunity to see it love & experience the taping. Stellar as expected

It was enjoyable to put faces to names and voices on the radio.

The "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me" production at the Civic Theatre on Thursday 3/14 was a "hoot" and a "wow." The show is funny to hear on the KPBS broadcast each week, but was even better in person. The jokes and "quiz" questions are always topical and clever, but we got even more of them in person than can ever get aired in the shorter broadcast time--as proven by actual experience of taping compared to the Saturday 3/16 radio broadcast. So glad I went!

Wait, Wait is always fun. This is my third time catching the show on the west coast. It is always fun, funny, hilarious, thoughtful, witty, clever, and a most enjoyable evening. The audience are all really into the banter and wit of the host and players. So everyone really participates in making it a fun event.

The humor, format, host and announcer were great. However, the program was less than enjoyable because the sound was bad so that the clapping and laughing made one unable to hear the hosts, guests and panelists. On top of that, we received an email telling us how important it was to get there one hour before showtime only to find out that the theater did not allow seating until 30 minutes before showtime, which started 10 minutes late.

We are big fans of the radio show and it was great fun to see the "behind the scenes" process by which the show is produced. Peter Sagal and the rest of the cast are very funny and it was a very enjoyable evening.

Enjoyed the whole experience; tooooooo expensive. Hilarious show.

As great as WWDTM is on the radio, it is three times better live. We loved every moment of the show. Brilliant dialogue!

Though I love listening to Wait Wait - - - on the weekends and was excited to see the show live, my experience would have been better had we been able to sit further down and closer. We were seven floors high in top balcony. Faces were a blur onstage. Would have helped to have big screens for viewing in the theater. Also, missed half of what was being said as the audience loudly applauded and hooted, and those on the stage began talking without waiting for audience to be quiet. Expensive tickets just to be there. I will be content to continue listening to the show at home or in my car, thank you.

You get to go behind the scenes of a radio show and learn how it’s put together. Peter Sagal has the quickest whit of anyone I’ve ever seen, which allows him to keep the show moving at lightning speed without missing a beat. The only problem is that you’re laughing so hard that you miss some of the dialog. It’s great fun. We’ve been to three tapings of Wait, Wait, and I highly recommended it to everyone.

Great experience being there to experience the recording of a favorite show. As usual the host and panel kept us laughing with their wit! Only complaint, come back again and sooner!

The show was very entertaining and well done. However the acoustics where terrible. You could hardly hear the three panel participants.
