It was a great show Wayne Brady is one of the best improve comedians
There wasn't a dull moment in the show. Improv is the best, a way to include the audience and have fun with the information collected. Wayne Brady is a master at improv!! We thoroughly enjoyed every minute!
Sooo funny, awesome show. Great interaction with the audience, fast on his feet
I like Wayne Brady. I really do. I saw him last year at Rama and laughed until my sides hurt. This year I was somewhat disappointed. It was essentially the same show as last year. It started a bit late and only lasted 90 minutes I don't think I'll be coming to see him next year if he's back.
The improve was awesome all the actor were so funny and I live how they got the audience involved.
We had fun watching those guys interact. I did feel that the audience members were plants. Put them in the cast or leave them out, is my feeling. The intro with Jonathan was fun. We will come back, if Wayne does!
Lots and lots of laughs - I highly recommend this show to everyone!
Excellent show, I have not laughed so hard in a long time!! I would definitely see him again if he comes back to Rama.
Wayne Brady is probably my number 1 all around entertainer. He is fast with improv and so funny with it and he sings well. Very entertaining and when he leaves the stage the feeling I had was euphoria. A very talented man indeed.
Absolutely hilarious!!! I was laughing so much my cheeks were sore!!
Wayne Brady was fantastic. The only downside was limited vision and a drink was $8.
We thoroughly enjoyed Wayne Brady and his sidekick Jonathan's performance and would give it 5 stars - a funny and talented guy- but we were disappointed in the venue and our seats. You would think first row would be awesome seats....but the cameraman was in our way most of the night and we ended up having to look at the screen! We were also a little disappointed in the sound. His voice was not clear at times and are wondering if it was because we were up beside the speaker or if it sounded the same at the back. We were very disappointed that our meet and greet was canceled (as Wayne had food poisoning) and we were not informed because we had arrived early to pick up our packages, with it being canceled after our arrival. An announcement or something would have been appreciated.
Wayne Brady put on a great show. Very funny. Handled the hecklers in the audience with grace and didn't engage them (other comedians can get overly sidetracked and waste so much time). Amazingly quick on his feet, witty. His co-host Jonathan was also great, they make an amazing team. So much fun to watch.
Hilarious. The hour and a half flew by. Only thing that could have been improved is if he was on stage longer. Love his quick wit.
Wayne's improve act is top notch. This show will have you rolling in laughter. The only gripe I might have is the audio was hard to make out sometimes, and that might be due to where I sat or the venue itself.
good show ...wayne did his whos line is it show with johnathin and kat
It was my first time seeing Wayne Brady live and we had a great time.
Been a fan ever since I was younger watching Wayne perform on Who's Line always use to crack me up. Once I saw that he was going to be in town I knew I had to cop a pair of tickets and did just that for a few friends and myself. For those that are unaware this show is an improv show so Wayne took many different suggestions from the audience to create funny stories and songs. I had to say my favourite part of the show had to be when Wayne called up a few audience members and had them act as props, it was really absurd and extremely funny to watch. Overall it was a great time for me and my friends and I would recommend. The show lasted just over an hour and a half.
We didn't know what to expect when we got to the show. We didn't know if it would be improv or he would just be talking. It turned out to be all improv and it was awesome. He did a great job at keeping the audience engaged and laughing. I would go to this show again!
was very excited to see wayne,was very dissappointed with the show..he started around 9:30pm ,30mins late ,he asked where were are all the black people?not sure why his show is not about colour or race,i chuckled a few times but i was waiting for a good laugh,that never happened,he seemed to phone it in......he made a comment about a lady leaving,i was thinking of doing the same but as i was seated front row i just sat there waiting for the show to be funny,it never was,what a waste of good money my seat was $70....too bad i like him on his game show but this concert sucked.
