Maybe not as funny as some of her previous stand up shows, this still had a lot of laughs in it.
From start to finish Amy Schumer was was hilarious! 10/10 would go again. Her jokes were dirty and original and it was awesome. All in all a great show. Her opener act Rachel finestein was also hilarious!
Surprised at a few of the reviews below. Amy was ROCK SOLID and killed it last night. Funny the entire time, knew her material and was quick witted and spontaneous. I love going to high quality stand-up because in my mind it's one of the most vulnerable and courageous forms of live entertainment, and therefor amazing when well done. Amy Schumer did not disappoint, she's a comedy juggernaut who's going to be a huge star IMO.
My husband and I really enjoyed the show. She was funny. What I wasn't too excited about was the show started 10-15 min late, her opening act was funny as well, but I didn't expect him to be on for 20-25 mins. The when she finally came on it was for just under an hour. I expected to see more if her or the price we all paid. Although we enjoyed it, we would not be in a rush to see her again.
Was a short outing onstage and seemed not into it. Scattered in thoughts and show became boring at points Gained momentum at the end but it was last five ten minutes
I guess I expected her to be way more funny. And the first act almost put me to sleep. Yikes!!! Started yawning halfway thru Amy's set. And reading off a cheat sheet felt like we were her practice audience. I paid a lot of money for our seats and it was somewhat disappointing. Had more fun gambling...and I didn't even win.
Disappointing show, she seemed ill prepared for a seasoned performer. Vulgarity was completely expected, but it just wasn't that funny most of the time. It was too bad ,I think her tv show is quite witty.
Great show! Opening act was hilarious too! Will definitely go back to see her next time she's in the area.
This show was amazing! Amy was hilarious and so funny! She was interactive and included the audience. I laughed all night! If you get a chance again to see her, I highly recommend it!
