5 star rating
96 reviews

One of the funniest performances I've ever seen.  period.  Also fun to sing along with the soundtrack after the show and laugh all over again as you imagine the puppets acting it out.  Target audience is 20 and 30 somethings, but older than that will enjoy it also.  So creative and hilarious.  Usually can get half price tix for this at tkts across the street at the Mariott booth.

These guys are immensely creative.  While in New York, I had to see the original BMG show at the Astor Place.  A much smaller venue, much more intimate.  Intimate enough that I got hit in the cheek...
