| - I was so excited when my husband gave me tickets to go here to see funny man Bill Crawford, part of the DVE morning show for those of you who never heard of him. That is funny because as I was telling people about going it became clear there are A LOT of people that haven't... Oh Well... Let me mention this was my first time there.
So I was warned in advance of the possible long waits outside and the two item minimum. Well to my pleasant surprise there was no wait, walked right in, greeted, an usher showed us to our seats and we waited less than 5 minutes to be asked for our order. This was nice. I will say that the show started at 8pm, and we were there by 7:20 or so. There were already people seated so we were by no means very early, and heck there were people with full course meals and tables of 10. The price of the mixed drinks were not disclosed on the menu, leading me to believe that it may leave me short for the mortgage next month, but they did have a 60 minute dogfish head IPA for $6.00. Now that may seem rather expensive and it is, but doable so I indeed did it... My husband got a domestic and it was between 4-5 bucks. We opted not to eat there, as we were going to Rock Bottom after wards and I will get to that review later...
So the show was good. There were moments that I think the comedians may have went off track and were just bantering, but luckily enough they rebound and got back to making everyone laugh instead of being uncomfortable. There were a total of 4 comedians, the MC, and two opening acts for Crawford. I actually really enjoyed them.
The one or two things I didn't like about the place. The bathrooms are in the lobby. As this seems normal there is no separate area to enter back into the room without having to make your way through people who are waiting to be seated... This was/is stupid. I was actually nervous that they were going to stop me and ask for my ticket which they safely secured at my first entrance. The same also goes for smoking. Since we were so early I took a break and it was again awkward reentering. Maybe they need to have some type of system to get around this. A stamped hand? A ticket stub? Not sure but I know I would have felt better unlike feeling like I was sneaking into the place.
I would definitely return to the Improv. I just hope I always have a rather positive experience!
