LESLIE NUESCA certified reviewer June 27, 2013
A night of pure enjoyment. I went with my husband and 13 year old son. We laughed throughout the entire show. What better therapy is that?!!The Spolin Players are truly talented. They all have a quick wit and and work great together. ... full review

You won't find a better more playful and creative use of an hour than the Spolin Players. Their history together show in the ease with which they collaborate. It's also nice to see them making each other laugh. A little bit of everything: acrobatics, musical challenges, wordplay and an extraordinary use of international languages. You won't be sorry and you will definitely want more.... full review
MAX SCHAFER certified reviewer June 24, 2013
These top Hollywood professionals have been working together since the 80s. They are the top in their profession and seem to be at their peek of brilliance. Their shows always sell out, and they never seem to ever have an off- night. Let this be the antidote for all the years of bad improv you have had to endure. You'll say yes, and... thank you.... full review

I am amazed, dazzled and definitely amused by the brilliant improvisations dealt by this fascinating company. Just think, every show you see will be different but I can only comment, and praise, the one I was lucky enough to witness. Since suggestions come from the audience (and not all seemed pre-set) the series of sketches are actually created on the spot - improv, duh! Favorite sketches, done effortlessly yet with keen precision, include: a man drowning in a leaky submarine, with sound effects “drip drip drip” to curdle your blood; O.J. Simpson in jail deciding whether to have water or juice; a roundelay of gibberish conversations being translated by a cheerful moderator, and a couple searching in a haunted house for the remains of a (may... full review

So enjoyable, entertaining, hilarious and marvelous. I felt privileged to watch these experienced players at work. The performances were top notch, enjoyable for me and my visiting parents. It will be a great memory of their visit to LA.... full review
BILL RATNER certified reviewer July 03, 2013
Watching these comedy pros bounce out onto the stage was like watching the NY Yankees hit the infield in the good old days. The full house was full of well-deserved laughs for this troupe of improv-magicians. John Mariano could be the new Howdy Doody on speed, he was so lithe, and stage-electric. It's hard to single out performers from this group of long-time experienced improv players, but what the hell...My favorite moment was watching the brain of Pat Musick on mic meld with the stage acting/lip-synching of Donna du Bain during a film dubbing bit. These two were in psychic stage heaven along with the whiz-wit of Danny Mann. How the hell do they do that? Well, that's the magic of comedy improv when it's done by pros like this. ... full review
