| Our group of eight was comprised of four younger and four middle-aged people. A most congenial group. The activity generates cooperation among the group so no matter whether you singularly participate or come with others, it is a comfortable gathering. Quite quickly you are drawn into the premise and away you go. It seems rather low key but the action builds and so does the comaraderie. There is a good deal of walking so dress comfortably and be aware that Accomplice does not end any where near the starting point, so you may be facing a further walk when it ends. This was a very clever, amusing and well thought out three hours. We had much to relive when it was over and were very pleased with how we spent our day. We were glad that we went as a group of four so that we could discuss it afterwards because you cannot explain it to anyone who has not participated without spoiling the fun for them. The cast and supporting players were all terrific and have provided a wonderful memory for us. Thank you. |

| Bring comfy walking shoes and be prepared for a fun filled three hours. Our group had a wonderful time and laughed so hard the creator came over at the end and told us what a delight it was to see us all enjoy ourselves so much. Whether you are from NYC or out-of-town you will have a great time roaming through downtown as you try to make all your contacts and help the' man' with a favor. PLUS you even get a drink and a little food to fuel the trip. We all had a fabulous time; we go to the theatre constantly - this was a welcome change. I recommend it 100 %. (and it really is a good buy for the dollar)! |

| The show is super creative and fun - great group activity but they don't tell you that you'll be paired with randoms to do the hunt. We HATED our group - well just 3 of the 8 people, but that was a big deal. So I'd recommend buying out your time slot and filling it with your friends. Then I think it'd be one of the coolest experiences around. |

| You won't be bored in this wacky three hour adventure through lower Manhattan. Even though I have lived in NYC for almost twenty years, I saw new details and places I had not experienced before. Without giving the plot away, there is a great combination of improv, humor, problem solving/puzzles, and food/drink pitstops to keep it fun and entertaining. I liked working with the other audience members as a team as we moved toward our goal and thought the concept very clever and the cast great. One suggestion for the creator is I'd love to see more challenging clues/puzzles for those of us who are into that sort of thing....

| Even with the terrible heat last Saturday - our group had a great time! We all got together to celebrate our friends wedding and this was part of the pseudo bachlorette weekend and it was a hit. We had fun - and got to see parts of the city that we rarely visit. Great times!! Thanks! |

| We enjoyed the Accomplice, but as others have stated there is a tremendous amount of walking involved! We are New Yorkers and used to walking even in the light rain that accompanied us throughout the day but I would not recommend this activity to anyone not used to walking! There was a particularly long period of time between "clues" where we did not stop, this caused a problem because several members of the group needed to use a facility.
The actors involved in the "game" were really great! They knew how to handle difficult team members and never broke character. I would like to see more clues along the way which would involve more interaction.
I took my 13 year old daughter and she was a big help! I would not recommend for children under this age, especially if they are not from New York! |

| The activity was very entertaining. I liked it from the beginning with the initial phone call. My other favorite part of the activity was the interaction. My only recommendation would be to either shorten it or add more activities along the way. I felt like there was a lot of down time and walking. Towards the end I wasn't as enthusiastic. |

| I went in not knowing what I was getting into but loved every minute of this show. For three hours, I was constantly entertained by the amazing actors and performers of this show. I was laughing the entire time and got to see new parts of the city that I've never seen. This was well worth the money and I would recommend this to any local or tourist! |

| I had fun at Accomplice New York. I went with my boyfriend and four of our coupled up friends. All of us are from New York. We had a good time. The actors were great, some were really great and, for the most part, they were very engaging. If you are from New York, the hunt is a bit too easy and we felt that things were spaced a little too far apart (not quick enough or hard enough), but I think that's to be expected given the amount of people partcipating daily.
I recommend a show later in the day. Because we were one of the later groups, we got to mingle with the cast afterwards (when they were finished acting) and that was by far the most fun part of it all. They are all really fun.
I strongly recommend going with friends bc there is a certain amount of interaction required. It's definetely unique and a genius idea, needs a little work on execution, but overall a good time. Should def try it out. |

| We had lots of fun and are looking forward to doing it again soon. Thought that the three hours would drag, but it was over before we knew it. The price was well worth the time spent. Told my boss about our experience and she can't wait to get a group of people together to go. You've proven that even a hardcore New Yorker from Brooklyn, who maybe even "knows a guy who knows a guy," can be surprised once in a while. Thanks! |
