| What a wonderful day we had. It started off with some of the nicest weather of the season - a nice 75 and sunny day. The acting and interaction with the actors was very entertaining, each having a piece of the story to share with us. Unfortunately, we didn't figure it out until the end what the show was all about - but enjoyed each step along the way.
I thought it was great how they got various stores and restaurant's to participate in the event - made it seem so much more real. I loved how we stopped for drinks at a couple of places and no one paid any attention to what we were doing or why we suddenly showed up. |

| Ok...the idea is an interesting one...but just not worth over $50 a person. We had assumed that the tour would have provided a little more food and drink along the way, where all we had was a beer, a coffee, and some nacho chips. We had expected to experience the Village with its history and ambiance and were just too caught up in the plot and racing around so that we finished in time. We did think, however, that it was an interesting idea and had its merit. We even made some friends along the way. Perhaps $25 a person would have been more appropriate. For a couple that's looking to just walk around the village, popping in and out of bars and restaurants....perhaps even shopping along the way, this is not for you. |

| Accomplice: The Village is a different theatre expirence. It is as site-specific as it gets, and it is an extremely cool way to expirence the village. The story infolds as you go from clue to clue, and the different characters keeps it interesting. The actors does a great job, and the story is inventive and well written, although the ending is a bit abrupt. All in all it is very recommendable. |

| my wife and I had first attended the accomplice show in lower manhattan and really enjoyed it. we had asked if the village version would be appropriate for a 12-year-old, since a couple months after that our neice would be in town. tom said the show would be fine for our neice, and indeed he was right on. this past weekend we took her to the village version and had a wonderful time once again. the story , the use of the locations , the actors, all of it so clever and engaging, it really incorporates some of the best things about nyc in a way that keeps you guessing and entertained. kudos to tom, betsy and all the wonderful folks behind accomplice: ny |

| This "second act" was more entertaining than challenging, but the actor's were great. All in all, it was a fantastic, fun-filled afternoon and a fabulous way to see the Village! |

| Didn't quite know what to expect. The event was cleverly conceived and performed using the backdrop of a neighborhood with which I am quite familiar. Highly entertaining. Time flew by. |

| The concept is interesting, performer are fine, and the places we toured around were nice. The only reproach could be that finding the clues and getting to the next step does not require that much effort since I had the feeling that each character met on the tour did not really expect questions but was there to give the clues, whatever the participants could say or ask.
But anyway I had good time.

| Our three cynical college-age kids were highly skeptical about this at first, but afterwards count it as a highlight of our trip and are still talking about it. Very cleverly done, with neat twists, characters, and locations. The pit stops in little bars along the way (some drinks included with the fee) give you a chance to relax and get to know your group between walking stretches.
If you want to discover the Village but don't want to be led around in a weary tour group, and you're game for some sleuthing with a group of strangers, this is ideal.
Good value for the money. You can just tag along for the ride, but it's more fun to dig into the clues and try to figure out the caper. I'd return for other editions, and so would the kids! |

| Found out about this activity from Neil Patrick Harris, while he was on the Live with Regis & Kelly Morning Show. He stated it was awesome. It was not very awesome to me. But it was interesting, unique, a lot of fun and very different compared to other activities I have participated in. The characters are unforgettable and the plot is intriguing as it unfolds in front of you during your venture around Greenwich Village. If you are lucky you also get to meet very nice people in your group. Be prepared to do a lot of walking.
Cannot wait to participate in their other activity, "Accomplice:New York." |
