Martin Short

Best comedy show I have seen at the Tulalip and I would love to see more. He was unforgettable. Laughed so hard. Quick change artist for sure.

I like him as an actor but not in this category. Not funny and sometimes just offensive (and not funny) with clear agenda. Felt like he did not want to be there, just needed to...as he implied himself. Very sad! People in this area are very different from the Hollywood or New York artsy crowd and hw could not relate. Too bad. We wish him well in his retirement!

Seemed Martin Short was just going through the motions reusing old material and schtick....wasn't terrible, but not the highest quality.

Martin Short at the Newport Yachting Center was hilarious. I love this guy. The only negatives had to do with the venue: the chairs were narrow, uncomfortable, and too close to one another, there was a strange spotlight reflection emanating from the piano on the stage, making it uncomfortable to look at the stage for a good twenty minutes, and the show started about forty minutes late. But as I said, Marty Short was great.

I laughed the entire show. Martin brought back some of his best characters and filled in the gaps with hysterical songs, dance and comedic wit.

I loved Martin and knew it would be a good show - but I was blown away at what a fabulous performance he put on. He went non-stop - full of energy, I laughed til I cried!!

I looked forward for weeks to see Martin Short at the Newport Yachting Center. Funny, but seemed rushed and predictable. His video montage was pleasant and brought back characters that I had forgotten about, but I could have just rented the movie or dug out old SNL reruns. His singing was good, but loud. I enjoyed the Three Amigos skit and Martin talking to Karen Adams. I didn't expect to be sitting in uncomfortable folding chairs in an erected car port type of tent.

I really enjoyed Martin Short at the Newport Yachting Center. His new stand up material was very good. However, his bringing back some of his old characters was really outstanding. The screen that showed some clips from his previous endeavors was often used to introduce the next sequence of his act. This really kept the flow of the night going. His interaction with local newswoman Karen Adams was hysterical. All in all, it was a great time and it proved once again that laughter is the best medicine.

I never thought of Martin Short as a singer! But the skits that he did with song were great! It was nice to see our "Old Friends" of characters that only Martin Short can do. He still has it and it was great to see him in person and relive wonderful memories.

I've always enjoyed Martin's humor on screen but was amazed how well he preformed stand-up. He was fantastic!

If you want contiuous laughter, go see Martin Short. He expertly pieced together a wonderful show from previous movies and shows. Has tremendous talent.

Absolutely fantastic, laughed the whole evening, he certainly still has it!

Martin Short Hmmm, Some times funny. There was nothing original in his performance. He relied on video clips to reaquaint his audience with his "schtik" I was disappointed with his lack of new material, What was up with the Karen Adams thing anyway?? It was a beautiful night though...

Martin short is comical when he works with other stars.He should not be doing solo performances. His show is a rehash of all his movie/TV characters without the supporting caste. Marty you are good but not without the other members of the entourage!!

good overall show but limited in time. Should have been a longer show.

My husband and I went to see Martin Short and it was a magical evening. I've always wanted to see him and he was fantastic . He is so talented and funny and gives 100%...a true showman. He performed a one man show of his life onstage,television and film . He is one of a kind and would love to see him again

Short was great but the sound system was awful. Didn't anyone do a sound check. Couldn't hear %20 of what he was saying.

Martin Short was unbelievable! He's still got it! He's so talented and showed why he has been so popular for so long. We saw quite a variety of the characters he has portayed over the years and his wit was sharp. It was very entertaining and full of energy. His voice is still flawless as he even sang a few comical songs. I'd love to see him again!

Martin is an unbelievable talent. He has an insurmountable amount of energy. We sat in the mezzanine....3rd row. The skits where Martin was a little wild (maybe improvising), we had trouble hearing all that was said. He had a pinned microphone that may not have been held perfectly in place. We missed a lot of sentences. When we watched video clips of Martin, that were very entertaining, the volume may have been a little loud making the sound bounce around in a hard to hear fashion. Other than that the show was great! Thanx Martin....Fix the sound!!

Really funny show. Short revived many of his classic roles. Loved the walk down memory lane.

The only funny parts were the video clips. He basically had no act other than showing clips of old characters or movie highlights and then playing one of those characters on stage. Ed Grimley not funny anymore and his Jiminy Glick interview with the phantom gourmet lame-o was tired and forced.

Great show - love Jiminy Glick and the films from satuday night live -

Last night's performance at the Wilbur was, hands down, the best show my husband and I have ever attended anywhere. Martin is, nothing short of being, one of the most amazing entertainers ever. He literally did it all. He sang, with a vocal range that sent chills down my spine. His impersonations were dead on. He had several costume changes, during which time footage of him in his various characters appeared on a huge screen on stage. He went down into the audience! This guy simply does not age and his energy level is like a lightning bolt in a house of mirrors. He did an audience participation segment that was hysterical. The theatre should have distributed Depends shields upon entry. I truly thought I'd be lucky if I saw him do a few characters from his career, but I don't think he missed one! I hope he tours regularly; colleges should bring him in to perform as the crowd really ranged in age and it appeared that age had no boundary in appreciating this tremendous entertainer's natural ability to make people laugh. My ribs hurt from laughing so much when I left the show! Do NOT miss the opportunity if he comes to a venue near you. Truthfully, I'd travel far and wide to see him perform again. He's worth every penny.

I absolutely loved this show. Martin Short is brilliant as evidenced by his body of work. The show met all my expectations and more. There was no dull moments and the laughs were numerous.Such a talent. I love his singing and he exudes such a presence. One of teh best shows I've ever seen. Everyone should go see this legenday performer.

Martin Short is absolutely adorable. I liked him before, but after seeing him up close and personal, I am a fan forever. His talent lies in his facial expressions and his true ability to be funny and respectful at the same time. Very happy I decided to make the trip to see such an incredibly talented man.

We had so much fun seeing Martin Short! He performed for two hours straight changing into different identities. I have loved watching Matin Short for so many years, to see him in person was even better!

It's always scary to see a comedian in person. To say he's a just comedian is to sell Martin Short(pun). He is a story teller. He is a Broadway singer. He is a character actor. He was very funny while showing those talents.

Ed Grimley continues to make the crowd roar with laughter! Martin Short's comedic timing is superb. The only disappointment was that the show had to end. Thanks for a great, entertaining, laugh filled evening!

Hysterically funny performance from a legend in comedy! Martin Short kept things moving and the audience howling with a variety of characters and stories.

Ok show but not worth cost of ticket. A lot wasn't funny and it came off as not prepared. Jokes fell flat. Only real funny part of show was when he brought 3 people up on stage and they were funny not him.

It was a very fun evening seeing Martin Short perform. Bringing up 3 Amigos from the audience was a lot of laughs and also the interview with the former Patriot.

Great show! Very lively and entertaining. Must see!

Highly entertaining. Martin Short is multi talented. Had no idea he won a Tony but after hearing him sing I can understand why he won! Nonstop energy he performed every character he has ever created. Just as funny as ever.

What more can you say about a legend? He certainly did not disappoint and it was more than apparent that he gave his all. It was my first time seeing Martin Short live and did not know what to expect. I can honestly say I laughed the whole 90 minutes he was on stage. Highly recommended!

One man, so many faces! All of them funny, witty, and entertaining. The guy can sing, too. I loved this show.

Martin Short is a wonderful comedic talent. From the moment he takes the stage, his jokes have you laughing resoundingly. His comedic characters are funny and brilliant. He also knows how to belt out a tune. See his show and be prepared to have a very enjoyable evening.

Side splitting funny and the man can sing! Fantastic night of intelligent humor and music.

Although the show was very entertaining for the cost of the ticket I would have thought the performance would have been longer. The show was barely over an hour so I do not feel it was worth the money.

Martin Short was witty funny at times but the show was short it was about an hour and a half I thought it would be at least two hours and He didn't have enough stage time with his comedic genius I think he's more of her over a physical comedic genius than he is. on stand up my entire family loves him in his movies and we'll still go see him anytime

Martin Short never fails to delight. With his quirky characters and deprecating manner, he can get away with saying anything. We all loved the show (two long time fans and one new fan).

What can I say, I love Martin short, I see all his movies, I watch him whenever he is on a late night show, and I really laugh at everything he says and does, and I read and truly enjoys his book, so naturally when it was announced he would be performing at the theater at westbury, I bought tickets and was so looking forward to seeing him. To put it mildly, I felt sorry for him! The energy and likeability is there, the material, not so. It's obvious that he has some issues with Chevy chase that are years old, but still fresh in his mind! I personally don't want to hear about it. He did go into characters, the first one was him in a nude body suit with things drawn on it, it was an embarrassment! We would have gotten up to,leave at that point, but we were in the middle of the row in the front! Next came Ed grimly, awful, followed by jiminy glick, interviewing the famous (?) owner of a LI comedy club, so bad that even he knew it was bad! Sorry Martin, I truly think you are a fantastic comedian, maybe you just need better writer, and someone to be honest with you!

Loved this show! Martin Short had the audience laughing for 90 minutes straight. He showcased his characters, interspersed with movie and TV clips, and live singing and cavorting. He was confident, relaxed, gracious and outrageous and appeared to have as much fun as we in the audience did.

Martin Short had us laughing continuously throughout the show! He has always been one of my favorite entertainers and comedians. I absolutely loved how he incorporated the videos from his many characters, both film and Saturday Night Live. All of our favorite characters that he has created were part of the show, especially Ed Grimley! Loved the interaction between him and Jeff the piano player. One of the best comedy shows I have attended. I have his book sitting on my nightstand, and will start reading it now! Just love him!

Non-stop fun, real stage presence - energy, wit and what a voice! Note: if MS can see you from the stage, recommend not dressing like a bowler.

FABULOUSLY ENTERTAINING AND PLAYED TO THE AUDIENCE WELL! HE UNDERSTANDS HOW PEOPLE THINK AND WHAT THEY LAUGH AT. A GREAT ESCAPE FOR ANYONE WHO IS TO SERIOUS ABOUT LIFE!

Great show! Talented actor! Would go see him again!

Martin Short is a pro from start to finish! I haven't laughed that much in a long time. His well-known characters, the banter with the audience, the singing! You can tell that he loves (and lives) to perform.

So funny. So smart. So silly. So perfect in what the show's intention was - to make us sit in a darkened theater, forget all our cares and woes and laugh our heads off. Thank you so much Martin Short for delivering your unique brand of humor in a way that let us all feel that it is the most important thing to you. Your talent is amazing, your wit is clever, your crazy antics made us giggle with delight. We know the effort it takes to put this type of show together and "go on the road," but please come back and give us more opportunities to enjoy your specialness.

Martin Short -- if U don't Know already that any person worth anything should have been at the show. I can't help you otherwise...

Martin was on his game as always, and we never stopped laughing. His Characters never get old, and his life experiences are all to funny. Loved it and would see it again

Simply, one extremely talented guy. He engaged the audience with his obvious comedic humor and an excellent singing voice that filled the 90 minutes with laughter and smiles. Bravo!

Martin Short is a well rounded, very entertaining performer who give his audience a wonderful night of entertainment. My wife and I loved his singing, comedy, and all around entertaining performance. Don't miss him...we certainly would go see him again.

Martin Short is one of the most talented comedians of All time!!

Laughed out loud!! Martin Short is a tireless performer...so glad he finally made it to the NYC area. I'd highly recommend his show. Thank you Martin Short!

Martin Short is very talented but the sound was not good so I missed some of his funny lines. We were sitting up on the mezzanine level. Also the seats were very uncomfortable. Overall his act was very funny and the price of the tickets were very reasonable.

Martin Short has an illustrious comedy repertoire and though I was unfamiliar with some of it, he had me smiling and laughing all night long. He's a terrific character actor, song-and-dance man, impressionist and story-teller. The show is quite varied and extremely well-paced. He reprises all of the famous characters he created for stage, screen and TV. In between, he shares funny behind-the-scenes stories, timely jokes about current events and his quick one-liner asides are drop-dead hysterical. During a few brief costume changes, entertaining highlights of his best performances played on a large screen. I arrived having no idea what to expect and exited a huge fan. I would gladly see Martin Short again and again. He's up there with all the greats!

I would rather stay home than sit through this un funny nonsense.

The show was good; although it started 20 minutes late and probably 20% was from videos of old footage. The footage was hysterical, and added to the show, but was a little unusual as you pay to see someone live. He performed a lot of the characters you know and love. My big issue was the seats at Andiamos. We bought the most expensive seats and at table 35 we were under the video screen so couldn't see it at all without getting out of our seats. As this was a lot of the show it was too bad, especially for the money we paid.

Martin Short is the funniest man since Jonathan Winters. At 63 he has the stamina of a 36 year old. We loved the show.

First hour of the event was boring auctioning event... got tired and regretted buying tickets.

The show was very good. Martin Short was funny and the auction was fun.

Sound system not very good. Hard to hear. Auctioneer not very good.

The good thing was there was a huge crowd for this charity event. The sad thing is that Martin Short had absolutely no new material. He was living and laughing from old accomplishments. Was is emtertaining? At times, but disappointing that he was using material from SNL from so long ago. Glad I went to support Forgotten Harvest, but would not see him again. Send a check and stay home

We were very disappointed. We had read Martin Shorts reviews. Said he was great, very clean. The event was labeled as family friendly. He was not clean or family friendly. Plus could not understand half the things he was saying (talking funny). We will not waste our time or money on him again.

I was kind of disappointed. Martin did not do one of my favorite characters - Ed Grimley! And he seemed like he was trying too hard to throw in some adult style humor which I was not expecting from him at all either. His act just didn't seem to flow - it was kind of all over the place. I probably would not go to see him again if I had the chance. The venue is awesome though and the reason behind being there made it worthwhile - fundraising for Forgotten Harvest...and a night out with Hubby sans kids :o)

It appears that he has been doing this comedy routine since the 1980's. All his material was really old. He included a lot of video clips from his movies and Saturday Night Live days which were all a long time ago. He needs some new material. He was the worst ever. I will never pay to see Martin Short again!

I loved Martin Short before and now after seeing him live I am even more impressed with his talents.

I love Martin Short. He's been great in dramatic movies/shows as well as his comedic endeavors of pushing the envelope of fun! However, the sound was so off at this event that not only was this a distraction, but at times, I couldn't understand things clearly. I just had a sense that Short didn't really want to be with us in Detroit. He seemed off, just going through his show without much zest. Maybe ill??? Utilizing old clips was a nice trip through memory lane, yet seemed more like filler --- not to mention their poor quality. Too, I hadn't realized that so much time would be spent on Forgotten Harvest needs prior to his act. I also love Forgotten Harvest, but what a boring waste of time to have to sit through so much (more than other charitable events I've attended). The live auction was a drag. People kept getting up during it as well as during the headliner in numbers unusual. Maybe too much booze??? Sorry this is such a negative review --- even I don't like to re-read it :(

Martin Short was great. Loved the one-man show concept over a stand-up routine. The charity was awesome. Forgotten Harvest is the best charity I have ever seen.

Martin Short was wonderful, but we were in the upper balcony and missed some of his lines because of the sound system. The live auction was much too long.

We are big fans of Martin Short. We expected the show to be a stand up act. We were pleasantly surprised when Martin Short played his famous characters...Ed Grimly, Jiminy Glick, the wedding planner character he played in "Father of theBride"....plus other great impersonations. He was very spontaneous and very funny. We had a constant smile during the entire show or we were laughing out loud! Fun show! Smart humor! Loved every minute of it!

Always loved his humor and amazed at his talent. Every minute @ his show was full of laughter. Enough said!!! BTW He should definitely be a 5 timer @ SNL.

Geat show. Every character you know and love ....he did. Never stopped laughing

A watered down version og his 1 man show on Broadway. That show was great. This was OK.

Very talented entertainer. Plays the crowd well. Very funny. The piano player was a good straight man. Enjoyable night. Worth the long trip from New Jersey

He sings, dances, does stand up, characters and impersonations, all in one show. He is so talented and funny. the he rushed off to do SNL that same night. We watched him when we got home. he was great!!!!

Martin Short did multiple characters, including make-up and costume changes covered by video hi-lites from his career that had the audience laughing even before he came out to do the character live. He told a couple of inside show business stories that I would have liked more of, but there was also that wink and nod to vaudeville with throw-away lines and gags. He was GREAT! Constant laughs. Laughed so hard I had trouble breathing. Remember, his lowest low is higher than your highest high.

Side view the entire night Would have enjoyed it more if the big screen were on for the live perfomance as well as the video clips.

90 minutes and never looked at my watch...Enjoy all of the characters from the past.

Martin Short is a very likable comedian, who I've seen before on Broadway. Watching his show in Las Vegas was somewhat familiar as it is pretty much a replication of everything he has done in the past, only updated slightly with more current topics. Overall, it was pleasant but nothing terrific. It was a night's entertainment.

Show started with a movie montage of his movies and characters. Nothing new. Nothing funny. Just old retreads.

The show began with a number of clips from Martin Short's great character portrayals. Unfortunately, that was followed by his appearance on stage. It felt like I was watching Henny Youngman at a Catskill resort. The jokes were forced, and a musical number about the capture of Osama Bin Laden was outdated to say the least.

We were in the same room with one of the finest comedic actors of this generation -- Martin Short! Cool! But, frankly it wasn't what we expected. The show depended a lot on past glories, which are many, but nothing really side-splitting. Fun show, though.

Martin Short was fantastic. He had a tough audience.
