My wife and I went to the NCT show on New Year's Eve. It was a lot of fun. The NCT staff and cast are exceptionally friendly and accomodating. The buffet was a nice touch and the drinks were reasonably priced. If you want to have a good laugh and spend an intimate evening ringing in the New Year (a... more

We attended the New Years Eve Show and I must say it was just brilliant. We spent weeks looking for something novel to do that would also be suitable for our 2 teenage sons. We certainly found it at National Comedy Theatre. We paid $79 each and I think we got excellent value for money. The evening started with an... more

For $15 (12 if you are a student or a senior), you get a delightful hour and a half of improvisational comedy. The troupe of young performers is enthusiastic and quite talented. The sketches, all of which involve input from the audience, are not all successful, but most of the ones I saw hit the mark. Children, eight and up,... more

Saw this club on TripAdvisor and I'm so glad we went. Our two teen-age daughters liked it alot and were already familiar with the 'Who'se line is it" format. We liked it cause it was "clean", very refreshing to be able to take the whole family. Our daughter Kaylyn, was picked to keep one of the players "honest" by accompanying... more

Even if you don't have a great sense of humor... even if you're hard to please... even if you're super confused about what to do in NYC... hit this show with your family. These people are just downright talented and will make you laugh your butt off!! It's even a great stress reliever if you've been walking around the city... more

Absolutely a blast. It may be small and intimate, but it doesn't feel like it once they get started. The whole place has more energy than times square. It was fun for any age. The performers are hilarious and the improv comedy is better than anywhere I have ever seen! We took our 15 yr old, 11 yr old and,... more

Just brilliant. Booked it online in London on the basis of the Tripadvisor reviews and looked forward to it a little anxiously but it didn't disappoint. The cast are very personable and talented people doing what they enjoy most - which is ensuring the audience have a good time. I wanted to be pals with them. They all zoom around... more

Extremely funny and clever improv comedy based on audience suggestions, similar to "Whose Line Is It Anyway". Really nice people too - everyone - the cast and the staff. Very reaonably priced, especially for NYC. Been there 6 times, including three straight New Years Eve's, which features free food and champagne. Highly recommended for all ages! more

If you want a cheap night out, full of belly laughs, make sure to get to one of NCT's improv shows! The show is largely based on audience participation, which means no two shows are the same. Come prepared to join in and laugh until it hurts! Dress is casual. Theater is small which means all the seats are good,... more
