This was the ideal way to celebrate my birthday!! His standup was most definitely worth the price of admission(and in this instance my date as well). It was also my first time ever seeing any major event at the Lumiere Casino. We had great seats except sitting closer to the stage would have been perfect though.

John Witherspoon definitely brought his "A" game, and the opening act wasn't bad either. My wife and I had a wonderful time. Very Highly recommended! He's a must see definitely catch him if he's in your town. Ticket prices were way to low for such a wonderful show!

Love the comedians but hated the venue. For the amount of the tickets, we expected something nicer. Our first time at the JLK Center but we're in no rush to go back.

I think all the comedians were super funny!!! And of course John Witherspoon was the best!!! The only thing is that it seemed that "willie jones" lol (love him) act was cut short bc the event started a lil later and i couldnt see his facial expressions ,which i absolutely love and what makes him even funnier, even though my seats werent that far.. But we had a great time and couldnt stop laughing :) ohh and the host, big worm big perm, was hilarious ❤❤❤

The overall show was great ....It would have been better if Pops didn't close the show. I feel like his time was cut short as people started to leave.

This was a very funny show and if I get the chance I will definitely go back next year. I forgot how funny Michael Blackson was and John Witherspoon was legendary. All of the acts were great, had me laughing until I cried.

He was so great, Funny, he danced, sang, and told funny jokes! I thought it was going to be boring because he quoted all his beginning work, but after all that he had original jokes that made my ribs hurt!

Witherspoon's opening was probably the best part for me when he referenced lines from his various characters. Not only is he funny but very animated as well.

Mr. Bang Bang had me laughing from the time he enter the show until I walked out the door . He took the time to take pictures with fans for just $20 dollars witch I thought was a deal. I can't wait until he is back in town.

I promised myself a couple of years ago after seeing him at the comedy connection, that if John witherspoon comes to town, I will be there. I enjoyed every minute of the show, from the time he came out on stage. He is a funny cat. Highly recommended.

This show was non stop laughter from, the moment the show started to the end. The man that came out before Witherspoon was also, very funny. I thought he was funny on TV but, he was even funnier doing stand up.

John Witherspoon is the MAN. I enjoyed every moment of his show and found tears running down my face. I had tears running down my face on some of the jokes that I heard before. Great show and looking forward to his next show.

Venue was ok, but they should definitely speed up the beverage ordering. Lines were really long and drinks were expensive.

The show was one hour late starting. No one bothered to come out and explain what the hold up was or even try to entertain the audience. I really felt disrespected and not so valued as a customer.

One of the best comedy shows I have ever been to! I laughed for 3 hours straight. Each comedian was absolutely hilarious. It was great to see Chicago's Sheryl Underwood and Damon Williams on the stage showing why they are one of the best at what they do. John Witherspoon was funny as hell and I couldn't get enough of him! Michael Blackson was so silly! Great event!!

Very disappointed, was not that funny. I thought we would be laughing so hard, making your sides hurt, instead we just chuckled here or there. As big as this was advertised and the price that you pay for the event and parking I just expected something way better. I had laughed more at amateur night than I did there. I also thought John Witherspoon was going to perform instead he just basically hosted the show.

My wife and I expected the show to be a lot funnier. We both agreed that Cheryl was funny with her filthy mouth. But, there was no music. John was okay, we did not expect him to be the Host for the night. The African comedian basically took the show. He had us cracking up. Damon was funny also, the prompt for his Son was cool too. He son had a really cool rap cd put together. The show seemed thrown together quickly and a little too pricey for the service we received in my opinion. $21.00 to park - really! Damn! The comedians even complained of the parking costs. The show was okay but not great! Too pricey and thrown together, DJ sucked. "I am just saying!:

The show was okay. I just didn't get that the comedians planned their routines. It seemed as if they were just talking about anything, whatever came to mind. I didn't enjoy it that much and my boyfriend kept falling asleep, as well as a few others.

I felt like the performers, although Individually funny talents, didn't measure up to expectations and weren't worth the cost of even the reduced priced tickets. There were moments of laughter but, overall it felt like something ill prepared and thrown together at last minute without much thought as the performers wandered on stage with a DJ who seemed clueless

This comedy show was so not worth the money. Everything was uncoordinated. The DJ was not prepared when guess came out. They called comedians out and it took minutes before they came. Also it was very short.

The show was great. Didn't appreciate the overweight guy taking over half my seat, but overall the show was great. Also they kept referring to having to be out of the theater by 10:30 and that sucked.

This was a great show, we will definitely be going back again. One note to the promoters however they started the show late around 8:30 and then I guess one of the comedians went a little over on his skit, so they kind of cut John Witherspoon short, which was the headliner and who we really had came to see. Was kind of bummed but since the other comedians that we didn't know as well did SOOOO awesome, it made up for it.

I loved the show. All of the comedians were fantastic. I just didn't like how they cut John Witherspoon off at the end. Everyone had their allotted time to perform and since he went last they flashed the lights way too much to get him to end it and we missed the punch line of what seemed like it was going to be a hilarious joke. Felt like I didn't get my money's worth... :-(
