We had seen Jonathan on TV and the wife just loved his act. We were so looking forward to the show, and finding him in such a small venue seemed fantastic. However, Jonathan just didn't seem all that motivated in being there. Perhaps too many shows wears on you, but after a few minutes of dealing with a heckler in... More

I remember the Amazing Jonathan when he used to appear on TV comedy shows a bunch of years back. He was edgey, funny, extremely irreverent, and very hip. It's kind of sad to see how he's fallen on tough times. The Friday evening show we saw had only 50 people in the audience. By his own account, he shared a... More

Wanted waste $55.00 go see this guy. I had a similar expirence watching a crazy homeless crack head on a street corner in San Francisco. The theatre is so poorly managed the security and the staff have know idea what is acceptable. We requested coffee upon arrival. The bartender inform me he didn't have any but I could bring Starbucks... More

I had been to this show about 3 years ago and it was hilarious. This time, I was not impressed. I am not sure if it's because I had already seen the show and I knew what was coming next? He seems to not have as much enthusiasm for the show anymore. The venue is pretty low key too. Drinks... More

The Amazing Jonathan is not very well advertised, I was searching what shows were available in Las Vegas when I was there and didn't find any details about him, However when I checked Jonathans website I discovered he was doing shows most nights in Las Vegas (when he isn't on tour) and tickets were very resonably priced. we purchased Vip...

I was ready for a big night of laughs during our recent Vegas trip and made plans to see this show. Very disappointed in the show, its pacing and the lack of punch. Not sure if Jonathon was having a off night or if the parse crowd lacked the energy the room required, or what the problem was. The pacing... More

I have been to Vegas at least six times and this show was the absolute worst show I have ever seen. It was boring, old, tired and shabby. Johnathan is insulting to the audience and his assistant. It really wasn't funny on any level. I have a sense of humor if only there had been some! Do yourself a favor... More

I've been a fan of The Amazing Jonathan for years and finally got a chance to catch his show. Loved it! Don't expect white tigers or disappearing elephants. What you should expect is one fast paced hilarious show. One gag after another. Non stop. Other than the show itself, the highlight for me was the chance to chat with The... More

My boyfriend liked the Amazing Jonathan so we bought tickets from our concierge. The concierge told us that the theater was small and we shouldn't waste our money on the expensive tickets. He was right! We paid for the cheapest tickets and still ended up sitting in the front row with VIP ticket payers and no one was the wiser!... More
