| My husband, our two friends and I attended Accomplice with "Waste of Time" and can only say that this couple spent all of fifteen minutes participating in the play. They acted as if they didn't want to be there even prior to meeting the first actor. The rest of the group enjoyed the play immensely, and I would hate to see anyone not attend based on "waste of time's" review. All I can say is, "Go to see Accomplice and you will have the time of your life". The walking and sightseeing only add to the enjoyment. Our group got lost and took our time. It took us four and a half hours to finish. We really got our money's worth! |

| it was fun as all the actors stayed in their roles and never made us feel like this was a joke. however, actors did tend to repeat themselves. overall, a fun experience. ending was little anticlimactic. my boyfriend from California had fun as we got to walk around lower manhattan. there was a couple that ended up dropping out early on but i think they were just not into it. they were overdressed and complained about the fact that it was a scavenger hunt. |

| A really great afternoon. Starts a little slowly, but then just gets better and better with some really nice details. If you're thinking of doing this, do it, and make sure you're wearing comfortable shows. |

Accomplice is an accomplishment!

| Our group had a great time going from point to point and getting caught up in the missions. We have lived in the area for a few years, and this was such a fun way to tour around downtown and see places we have not seen before. The actors we met on the way were hilarious and a lot of fun to engage with. We wish the clues were a little bit more difficult, which makes us excited for the possible sequel. We have been raving about it to our friends and co-workers (without giving too much away). If you are looking for a fun way to spend an afternoon, become an accomplice!
Thanks to the cast members and creators.
PS - If you are doing this for a friend's birthday or other special occasion, let them know ahead of time and they will incorporate it into the afternoon. |

| It was a really cool experience. A lot of fun.
Who you bring along makes the difference as well as the people you get grouped with (should you not have a full group of your own to start). Attitude definitely matters -it's a lot of walking to be in the company of someone who whines or who doesn't have a good sense of humor.
Also, kids in the group detract from the experience. It's one thing to go with your own kids, definitely another to be around someone else's. It takes quite a bit of the fun away having to constantly defer to the presence of a child.
Beyond that, the only bit of criticism I have is that I can't do it again. |

| We had a blast doing this. We had a mixed age group, from 10 to . . . well, middle age . . . and we did this as a surprise birthday event for our son. The actors were terrific, playing roles that were shady and a little wacky, but not much more so than many an oddball walking down the city streets. It was a great way to spend a day experiencing the hustle and bustle, sounds and sights and smells of New York City. It's great fun to follow the clues that lead you around town and entangle you ever more deeply in a criminal conspiracy . . . If you ever wanted to be a mobster for a day, this is a dream come true -- and you can be sure to be released on your own recognizance when it all ends. |

| This was a truly unique experience.... tons of fun, extrememly creative and appropriate for all ages! The actors were talented, funny and very witty --- the clues were so creative and so much fun to figure out.... the 'hunt' took us all over southern Manahattan which was worth it in itself. I would recommend this for anyone looking for something different, something fun and something that will entertain you non-stop throughout the show!! |

| To the already amply available info on this tour, I want to add and stress how good and original an opportunity it provides for seeing a particular and interesting part of Manhattan with such a "different eye", besides of just being fun, with a hilarious part in it too.
I dare take the opportunity, of suggesting to the organizers that they try and interchange some of the feebler parts of the story line with more of a mix of real local actual and historic anecdotical specific tales, or even make those up. Thus, I fancy, the site itself might become still more of a true and living accomplice to the participant's experience.
As it is, I'm grateful for the tour, anyway, and thanks are due to both the organizers and the actors.
