We took my dad here for his birthday on 3/10/2018 and walked out extremely disappointed. The show we went to was the main stage one--a mix of improv and sketch comedy. The sketches tried too hard to be culturally relevant . . . so much so that there were times when they clearly weren't even trying to be funny. If I wanted serious social commentary, I wouldn't be in a comedy club. The actors were stiff and boring overall. And when the improv actually rolled around (the few times it did), the actors looked like they were in physical pain. Half the fun of improv is watching the actors laugh at each other and struggle to stay in character. Instead, their improv skits were barely related to audience suggestions. It felt like they were just performing a sketch that was very distantly related to the suggestion. There were also a few audience groups that shouted and whooped the whole time so that it was difficult to hear what was going on several times. I tried reaching out to the company but received no response. There are other improv shows in Boston that are infinitely better with much better customer service and at a cheaper price point (like the musical one in Cambridge). I don't understand how people enjoy this--maybe they've never seen good improv. 10/10 would NOT recommend.
