Awesome night! Mr. Brady is an exceptional talent. my wife and I will forever be fans, we made the drive from Oceanside approximately 160 miles round trip, it was well worth the drive!!! hopefully he'll perform a little closer in the future, but if not, we'll make the drive again!!!
He was not funny. Show was only 90 minutes His renditions of songs at the end was the best part of the show. Johnathan Mango was funnier than Wayne brady
His performance far exceeded my expectations. I would see his unique show again in a heartbeat.
Wayne and Johnathan were outstanding! I have not laughed so hard as I did watching them perform.
Wayne and Johnathan are full of talent. This was our first time seeing Wayne Brady and he did not disappoint. Quick witted and laughter all round.
If you have enjoyed watching Wayne Brady on "Whose Line Is It Anyway" you will not be disappointed. I laughed the entire time, as he takes what you see on the small screen to the stage without the restraints of T.V. I had a blast. The only thing i didn't care for was the venue. First you have to make your way through a smoked filled casino and wait in a very disorganized line. Then they shuffle you up an escalator and into another line. Finally, you make your way into a banquet hall with a bunch of chairs packed together. Thankfully, the person in front of me wasn't very tall or else I wouldn't have been able to see much.
Fantastic show!! Wayne at his best. Would prefer a venue with stadium seats versus all on one level and would have liked the show to be longer but still terrific
Really funny show. We weren’t sure to expect. Wayne and his side kick were so funny.
I didn’t know what to expect but Wayne Brady and his crew were absolutely hilarious.
the chairs were uncomfortable--too narrow or close together
Wayne Brady and company were amazing. So funny, and just like an episode of "whose line is it anyway?", but live! So much fun my face hurt from laughing so hard.
I usually like Wayne Brady but was disappointed in this show, not a fan of this improv. It was too short, only about an hour and 15 minutes and had no warmup act. It started out ok but went downhill about halfway through. The music was louder than Wayne and Jonathan making it hard to understand what they were saying. On a positive note seats were great.
Wayne is 1 of the kings of improv. He and sidekick, Jonathan, keep audiences totally entertained with their brand of comedy. However, their last show at the Count Basie in Red Bank, NJ lasted just a little over an hour. Disappointing because Brady can sing and do impersonations among his comedic talents. All that could have easily filled 2hrs. A disappointing evening for a brief & truncated show.
Had to take my glasses off more than once to wipe tears from my eyes. Lots of laughs. He is very talented
I went with a friend who really didn't know about Wayne's comedy but she (and I both) thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Non-stop laughter without being barraged by f-bombs. Will go to see Wayne Brady whenever he is playing at the CBT. Got great seats last minute (Row K on the aisle orchestra right). Was just a great evening all the way around. Great entertainment is available at reasonable cost just a 1/2 hour away. Fan of CBT.
Once inside the Count Basie theater we didn't have any problems, but we spent 30 minutes trying to park. The show was great. Wayne Brady is a genius, but anyone heading to that venue better get there early enough to drive around to find parking.
Wayne and Jonathan were a riot and fantastic entertainers. Any fan of Whose Line will love this show!!
We weren’t expecting Johnathan and Cat to be with him
Wayne was just as funny and quick-witted as you think he would be. The show was a great display of the amazingness of improv. The only disappointment was the length of the show itself. It was just about an hour. I was a little disappointed that it was so short. Glad I did not splurge on more expensive tickets or I would have been much more upset. Overall, though, it was a great experience!
Fantastic show! Wayne and company were all so fun and funny. I will definitely see him again if I have the chance.
