Martin Short...

So how is his show doing, do you think it will last a while, I don't know much about it, and haven't really heard anything.

re: Martin Short...

I'm seeing it in 2 weeks and boy, am I EXCITED!!!
My dad basically made me grow up on Martin Short sketches and movies so I'm really looking forward to seeing his show.
And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps... What did she realize, Kitten? That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs. What's wrong with that? Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had... Where? On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.

I saw it last week. What do you want to know about it?

re: Martin Short...

I was wondering how long do you think it is going to last? I was just curious, because having not heard much about it, it seemed that it wasn't doing too well.

I saw the show a few weeks ago and laughed during the entire performance. It was a great experience to see a great comedian like Martin Short on stage, plus the bonus of a broadway production featuring a very talented cast. Highly recommended!

If you're a Martin Short fan, it's a great show. If you're not, you may get tired of his shtick after a while.

He's very generous with the stage time and sharing it with his expert ensemble, Birdsong, Vivino, Ashmanksas, Shaman, and Jenkins.

The "celebrity/random audience guest" factor is what makes the show interesting. Having seen a normal guy from Hoboken, as well as Jerry Seinfeld, Regis Philbin, and a NY1 anchor squirm in their seats, I can safely say it's hilarious.

And who can resist laughing at lyrics like "I want those big titties"?

Noted and edited, apologies all around.

For the record, I based my opinion on the many different interviews I've seen. I know it's just a persona, but he just strikes me as a bit....full of himself.

I wasn't around when the reviews came out. Were they positive, negative, mixed?

re: Martin Short...

Mixed to positive.

It was a great show for a very slow summer.

re: Martin Short...

It was a fantasticly entertaining show. I wish I could go again.

And one thing I loved was the sign on the inside of the stage door "Marty Exit This Way." Now, I'm sure I know what it meant, but it still is funny.

I just picture lil' ol' Marty wandering around backstage in his baby costume, lost.

I'd like to see the show just for Jiminy Glick. I do like Martin Short a lot, though he does grate on me at times. I think he's a wonderful comedian.

re: Martin Short...

just to clarify, "vivino" aka. Donna Vivino has not joined the cast yet. She starts this Tuesday i believe. So it must be Nicole Parker you're referring to.


The show is really fun for Martin Short fans and non-fans alike. Its just a laugh out loud good time, and i definitely got the vibe that the cast is just one close knit gang. I laughed the whole show. Nothing ever felt tired and i left still laughing about it. highly, highly recommend it
