| My sister and I had a wonderful time. All of the actors and people involved were interesting and fun. Stopping for food and drinks really hit the spot. I would recommend that you stress how much walking is involved. Some of the people in our group were slow and exhausted. We had to wait up for them. Our group consisted of Americans and 2 Italians who spoke no English! I will tell everyone coming to NY to do one of your tours! thank you |

| This was a totally enjoyable experience. All members of our group would have no reservations in recommending this experience to anyone. Well thought out and organized. All people involved in Accomplice New York were totally believable. Cannot say enough great things about this experience. |

A fun alternative to a tour!

| We enjoyed our "Accomplice" activity in New York. It was a different adventure, perfect for families with children 10 and up yet fun for a group of adults. The actors and actresses were enthusiastic and seemed to be having fun too. There is a lot of walking involved and I would not recommend this activitiy on a hot day 90 and up! I think the next step to consider to make this a 5 star activity would be to incorporate history into the activity. There has to be so much history in lower Manhattan. I am sure much of the history is very colorful and would be fun to include into the activity. You would be learning while having a great time. Ex. be careful walking, so and so was shot by the gang there....Turning it into a fun, interactive historical fiction type activity would be fabulous. If you do change it into that, let me know and I will sign up again. I would recommend the activity to friends. It is fun and unusual. Thanks ! P.S. We were a group of teachers! |

| we really enjoyed the accomplice. it was fun and made us do some thinking also.
the time went by really fast we didn't want it to end. the actors and actresses were very good and pretty convincing in their roles. we definetly will recommend it to others and plan to do the village one in the fall. |

| My sister + I joined 6 strangers and had the time of our lives We made new friends, laughed our heads off, used our smarts + intuition and saw more of ... um, well... this area of the city (I don't want to give ANYTHING away) - than we ever would've on our own. I can't stop talking about it - even though I have to constantly self-edit so I don't ruin it for anyone else. I'm practically stopping strangers on the street to recommend this! I still keep re-living it.... remembering so many small, hysterical things. From the "day-before-phone-call", to the "after-caper" drinks with our new friends, it was A+ all the way. The logistics behind the scenes are just mind-boggling. My kudos to the creators, Tom + Betsy! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
P.S. To those of you who know the city backwards + forwards, and think this is just a touristy thing to do - you are dead wrong!
P.P.S. To our new friends from WI + MN, Thanks for being so much fun! We had a blast! "I sweah da gawd!" "Oh Yah! Fer sure! Don'tcha know!" |

| Our group had 4 young teenaged guys -- plus an adult -- these suburban kids thought they knew EVERYTHING but were amazed, entertained and engaged for an afternoon they will never forget. What a cool birthday party we gave our son. Get another one of these cooked up so we can do it again! The boys are all in love with Bunny and are all claiming it's mutual. What a riot. We laughed all the way home.
You gave us story material for "in-jokes" for years.

| It was a fun afternoon. The actors were skilled and entertaining. There was, perhaps, a bit too much walking, although seeing different neighborhoods was worthwhile. A smaller group would have been better. (Ours had ten.) |

| Accomplice is well designed and very entertaining. We had a beautiful day, so the walking was very pleasant. The more you get into the whole production and characters the more you'll get out of the experience. Everyone wanting to participate and being enthused with the process seemed to be a key ingredient. Some groups may have more than 8 people, and that would seem too many to me.
My college-aged daughter and I thought it was the best thing we did in NYC. Our whole family may do this again at Accomplice SF in Oct. or Nov.!. Sign up ... get into the spirit of the crime! |

The BEST of what New York has to offer!

| We went into with without any expectations, not knowing what to expect, but "theatre" & "actor" savy, as we volunteer & act in our community theatre. It far exceeded our expectations. I'd highly recommend it to any & every one. We saw parts of the city we'd never been to, much less heard of. There were 5 in our group, aging from 19 - 59. Our group was large because there were 7 more in it, possibly a smaller group would've been better & we could've moved along quicker, but we enjoyed meeting the other people. I'm so glad I just happened to view the Reig/Kelly show where Neil Patrick Harris was standing in for Regis...that's the only way I would've heard about it...he talked about it. I looked it up & decided we HAD to go. Others in our group heard about it the same way. They should "franchise". We live close to Houston/San Antonio/Austin...they would be excellent choices to have one there. It took 4 hours, but the time went quickly. And...it would've been nice if a t-shirt could've been thrown in for the price of admission, but I wouldn't change a thing about it. Maybe charge an extra $5 in the beginning. The cell phone message the day before we were to meet telling us where to meet was a hoot! Each character we encountered, you weren't really sure was the one we needed to find. All the characters enter-acted with us; they were great. We just had to call the help line once about where to go...good thing; we were going in the wrong direction. Keep up the excellent excursion! thanks again, The Streetman Family - John, Cathy, Spring, & Spencer + Evan! |
