| This activity was not what we had expected..we thought we were going to get an insiders view of somewhere that is never listed in the guide books
On the other hand we found the trip enjoyable, the actors believeable, and the thoughtfulness on your part to include refreshement stops very welcoming
A suggestion...maybe at the end of the trip a small map showing the area we covered would be interesting as I was a follower, not a leader, in the group and have no clue how we got from place to place, only that it seemed I walked a lot
Keep up the good work, Theresa Dixon |

| It is a novel idea and it definitely had it's moments but overall I felt as though accomplice was drawn out and just an average activity.
Felt at times I could just skip all the walking and take a tour b/c you really don't get to take in much while you are doing the tour although you do cover a lot of ground. I really didn't feel as though I learned about any hidden areas/gems.
Given the variety of things to do while in the city I am hard pressed to rank this as great activity.

| The Accomplice is great for anyone who's ever wished they were on the Amazing Race! I did it with friends who also live in the city, and my parents who came in from out of town. It was a fun excuse to visit downtown areas that I wouldn't necessarily hang out in otherwise-- not to mention the cast interaction was absolutely hilarious! |

| We were from Denver so we enjoyed walking the neighborhoods and seeing the sights along the way. The characters in the play were very engaging and funny. Even people who are not in the play become interested in what you are doing. You can never be sure who is involved and who is not. A great way to spend an afternoon in N.Y. You end up in a great neighborhood for dinner or lunch if you want to include that in your plans. |

| A terrific experience. Clever concept, carefully structured, with talented actors that fuel the fun. It's a street peformance, a treasure hunt and an interactive tour of lower Manhattan, all combined. This is a 3-hour experience, with drinks and snacks along the way, at a totally reasonable price. It's particularly cool that non-actors in stores and bars are part of the game. We had 5 fully packed days in NYC that included theatre, museums, Ellis Island, jazz, outstanding food, comedy - and without claiming this was "better" (don't want to compare apples and oranges), it was the most memorable. |

A great way to show people the city!

| We had guests in from out of town and this was a great way to show them the city plus provide some entertainment! The show was great and we really did enjoy all of the actors.
We would definately participate in a second show when it comes along!

| Overall I think it was very creative and well planned. However, I thought the premise and some of the actors were very...hokey. It was obvious they were actors and were overly dramatic. I think they should have add libbed a bit more and not stuck to their "script" so much. I caughtmyself drifting off several times during their "schtick". It was not captivating or engaging. In particular, the man on the Brooklyn Bridge and Bunnie.
Although the website does warn you to wear comfortable shoes, I think the walking involved was extensive. We had a pregnant woman in our group and she found the trip to be exhausting and overwhleming. |

| I definitely enjoyed it. Actors were well prepared and were able to improv based on our comments quite seamlessly.
I good way to expand this to cover manhattan and other areas is by giving out subway passes and or asking people to bring their own.

| it would have been better if it was just our family instead of being with strangers. We have 2 teens so it would have been a more teamwork experience for our family. Also, i don't like a time limit because we couldn't stop and look at things, explore things that caught our attention. It's more of an out of the box dinner theatre mystery than a tour of seeing NY. It seems like the one girl in our group was a plant for the performing company because she kept hurrying us along. |

| Wow, we had agreat time. I took a group of friends for my Birthday. We had fun. It drizzled a little , but some of our group thought it added to the game. Definitely something different to do for a Birthday. . |
