  • DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY LIKE WE DID. More than half the show was a SALES PITCH FOR his "Little Jeff" dummy and his new wife's line of cookies. HE'S JUST NOT AS GOOD AS HE USED TO BE. Maybe he's jaded by fame, maybe he's tired from performing in too many shows; whatever it is, it's not worth your money. Jeff was 15 minutes late (claimed technical defect). After a slideshow of his life before fame, he then spent the next 15 minutes discussing his (significantly younger) new wife, their twins (she's 5 months preggers), her cookies that she is now selling, her blog, and her twitter-- he even gave out her twitter handle, seriously. He then spend about 30 minutes doing essentially what was a "live infomercial" for his new ventriloquism starter kit witch includes a "little Jeff dummy" that is sold in the gift shop. He even read from/performed the ventriloquism act from the book that's sold with the kit. I don't want to learn ventriloquism, I wanted to see it performed by a professional. The ventriloquism act itself was short, and, honestly was just okay. Jeff spent about 5-10 minutes on each of the characters (Walter, Bubba J, Peanut + Jose, and Achmed). I've seen him perform better in the past. The voices were not good as they used to be and a lot of the characters said the same lines--- "funny as hell", it seems he's just phoning it in and collecting the cash. He's not the same eager performer as he was years ago and you can see this in his act. He performed new material for our audience, but he really hadn't rehearsed it and was just reading from a note pad. While I appreciate the new material, dude, take 10 minutes and memorize and rehearse your new set. It's not a free show on the street, this is a show people paid good money to watch. The older crowd-- that likely never watched youtube- seemed to very much enjoy the show, but i'm assuming if you're checking yelp, you're computer savvy and will regret your decision to see this show. So, I'd recommend saving yourself a few hundred bucks and just watching his old performances on youtube.
