- Epic! Best show ever! Absolutely amazing
- The show was absolutely incredible! I am still in awe! The staff and everyone was very nice and helpful too!
- Sexy, funny, and a lot of fun!
- Amazing Show!! Great MC, dancers, costumes and props 🙌
- Love the show, but the seats are tiny and unassigned, so you're not guaranteed to be with the people you came with unless you are early.
- This show was wild! It was funny, sexy, and you never knew what they were going to come up with next!
- It was hilarious, well done.
