| We chose to do Accomplice: The Village because I wanted to do something that my sons aged 16 and 14 would find fun and I wasn't disappointed. We didn''t really know what to expect but once it got underway we thought it was great fun. My very hard to please 14 year old laughed the whole way through and wanted to do it again the following weekend. I would say it was probably the highlight of his trip.
I would highly recommend The Accomplice to anyone who is liooking to something that little bit different. It is great for families with teenagers or for groups of friends or couples. |

| From the get go, some in our group were ready to walk away from the characters we encountered ... real, or imagined. Some wanted to virtually integrate a couple of them into our group. And, others were furious the event organizers would allow the group to be so inconvenienced by the intrusive (and, sometimes rude) behavior of strangers. How New York City!
From character or character. From venue to venue. From group discussions/debates (I hesitate to say "arguements") to individual resignation to go along with the session, we found ourselves laughing (almost hysterically), drawn into the lives/cares of the actors, and boldly committing acts of, well I can't give this away except to say if it had been "real" ... and, there was no way to know whether, or not it was real or part of the event's activities ... there was a chance we'd have been calling folks at home for bail money.
Yield to your inner sense of the absurd. Throw (almost all) caution to the winds. Go with it and you will make this adventure your own.
Take nothing for granted, but be sure to take yourself and your family and friends. |

| We weren't sure what to expect when we showed up at the meeting place. And to be honest, for the first 10 minutes or so, we thought it might be pretty lame. I actually considered sneaking away. But I'm glad we stuck with it. Once we figured out what was going on, we were able to go with it and have fun.There are many props that you use as clues, which made it fun. Overall, it was very cleverly done. The "story" wasn't obvious until the very end. It's the kind of thing that for the rest of the day you say, "oh, NOW I get it!" The other people in our group were kind of ambivalent about the whole thing, so it might be more fun if you have your own group of friends to go with. I think it was very well written, very clever, and the characters were very entertaining. Definitely more unique than the usual touristy thing. |

| The initial actor (Susan) sort of blew the cover for the story. She over acted and took too long to accomplish her part. We therefore became quite suspicious at the get go. Otherwise, we had a great time and the performers were excellent. They certainly knew how to interact with the group. Fun time. |

| We enjoyed Acomplice: Viilage and felt that the event was well organized. The weather was perfect and there was chemistry among the participants.
The actors were great and funny. They observed the group and incorporated us into their act. Accompliced utilized local businesses as part of the stage/sets. As a New Yorker, it's always exciting to discover new local businesses.
The Accomplice planners incorporated drinks/break/ bathroom stops into the story. I thought that was brillant and thoughtful.
I was sad when the event ended. Had so much fun.
Disappointed: didn't get to see the inside of the Flemming House.
Overall it was a great opportunity to tour the city. |

| The four of us had such a great time. The entire adventure was very creative, so well conceived, brilliantly executed and timed. All of us (a group of women from 63 to 23 years of age) absolutely loved the experience and have continued to "talk it up" with total strangers, our family and freinds!
Our thanks to all of you .... you were amazing! We now have a really fun family memory/story to take with us and pass along to others.
Thank you so much,

| On a rainy Saturday afternoon, my friends and I had an Accomplice adventure.
Without giving away any clues, except one if you look really hard, we had a blast!
What's so amazing is that you can be doing all sorts of weird things and nobody in New York City even flinches. We already did the Accomplice, NY last year so I'm afraid we have no more to go on unless we go to Hollywood! |
