| Accomplice, on one level, is a brilliantly "scripted" play performed by uber-talented actors and gorgeous actresses. On another level, Accomplice allows you to experience downtown Manhattan, including quirky little spots that even the natives miss. These talented performers act as narrators, guiding you through City as you live out your Sopranos-like fantasies while helping out the infamous Don Salamone. Did I mention, it is fun? Accomplice isn't just a stuffy play--it is so much fun! I'm hesitant to reveal too many plot details, but the magic of Accomplice is that the plot differs each performance as the variety of downtown Manhattan ensures that each showing is unique.
I would most enthusiastically recommend Accomplice for all ages (the cast varies each show based on the audience), and for native New Yorkers and tourists alike. My afternoon as an accomplice was truly one of my favorite times in New York City. |

| We did not know what to expect when we signed up. But, the experience was very user-friendly. The mix of actors and every day merchants immersed us in the local ambiance and enhanced the mistery we were involved in.
Got to see a part of NY that we had not seen in our past 5 visits... Awsome.
Totally neat experience from the perspective of relatively conservative/adventureous Milwaukeeans.
We would recommend this is a MUST for NYC residents and 2nd, 3rd or 4th+ time visitors to the City.

| The experience was unique and totally enjoyable and I would recommend it to any traveler to NY. I have come to NY for many years(35) and being from NY for the first 30 years I was able to see the different neighbor hoods in a unique fashion. It was like I was involved with the neighborhood as I went from clue to clue. The performers were outstanding. |

| It was a fantastic experience. The idea and execution were excellent.
The actors were hilarious and the fact that we got free drinks and food along the way (it was quite a long walk) helped the experience and also bonded the group.
I can't say enough about how much fun we had on this. It was an especially nice touch to meet the creators of the tour at the end.
Thanks again and we will be telling everyone we meet about it

| This was one of the best activities we did our whole vacation. Sure there was a lot of walking but there were numerous moments we could sit and relax. Most of the event will depend on who you are grouped with but we really just had an incredible, incredible time. I recommend this to anyone! |

| We had a great time, and everyone walked away feeling like they had been treated to an unusual and fun experience. We all live in new york, and three of us are natives. I am relatively outgoing and I think this could be a fun thing to do as a single person, but if you are more shy, having a group of friends is definitely a plus to ensure that everyone gets to participate equally. We had a couple of uncanny experiences, where people not associated with us or the AccompliceNY group interacted with us in meaningful ways and helped us on our way. This is not just a tour of New York, it is a tour of some of the weird experiences that living in the city can provide. |

| Not recommended for groups of 2, especially when you get stuck with a group of 6. Each Accomplice mission is conducted with 8 people. We were a father/son team of 2, hoping to be paired with other smaller teams of 2-3, which would've worked well. Instead, we were stuck with 6 dysfunctional high school girl friends (that were now in their mid-30s). It didn't help that 2-3 of them showed up half drunk. The result was, when these girls weren't busy being belligerent to the Accomplice actors, they were looking for a toilet. The other less vocal half of the six-pack were very nice and some fun was had. Overall though, very disappointing. |
