The performance was incredible, i can not believe it was just five people playing all different characters. They were able to change characters and scenes so fluidly, it was so impressive. The storyline was easy to follow and hilarious at times. It was wild and exciting and every scene was something new and different. Overall, a great night out.

It was a wonderful old theatre though there was little leg room between the seats. We had a great view. The show was brilliantly put together with all five actors and actresses playing multiple parts of both sexes. The second part gets a bit complicated as the players change outfits in a flash and become different characters. The plot is basically true but adjusted to provide non-stop comedy and songs. Headout's tickets came through a few days before the show and I transferred them to Google Wallet and got into the theatre instantly. An added experience was the crowds coming out of all 9 theatres on West 45th Street at around the same time !!!
