Steve Martin & Martin Short Tickets

A 2 hour laugh!

We were so impressed with the show, does NOT disappoint!

Martin & Short were outstanding

Steve Martin & Martin Short were and are the best! So glad I went. The Paramount is a great venue. Only disappointment was they ran out of posters and I wanted one.

Decent show, lots of laughs, but... not worth it?

We laughed pretty hard from start to finish. We were/are fans of Steve Martin. Time flew by. So why don't I recommend it? It felt staged. Like a well oiled machine that's been running for years. The funniest bits (to me) were the two jokes where they made fun of current events (Justice Kennedy retiring and something about Michael Cohen). They tried to poke fun of Seattle's legal marijuana laws with some lame joke about being too high to handle it when being told they were performing in Seattle - but it again felt like the kind of joke where "When they called to tell me we were playing in <city name>, I <insert joke about something city is known for>" was literally written in the script. Had it been two hours of the Steep Canyon Rangers playing (they played ~15 mins), I would've recommended the show SO highly. But as it was $350 for two of us to sit in the back row of the auditorium for ~1h40m watching a staged show pretend to be conversational and not pulling it off super well. They joked at the start about stretching an hour of material in to two... and only had about an hours worth of content interspersed by musical interludes, which made that joke a lot less funny. Again; we laughed, we enjoyed it, but this is definitely NOT a "Can't Miss" show. Nothing was specifically original or unique. We caught the 4pm, so maybe the 8pm show had different/better content? At $50/ticket, I would've recommended. At $175/ticket... I wish I'd spent my money elsewhere.

Such a disappointment

Have been Steve Martin fans forever and thought we were Martin Short fans but he was reaching to the bottom of the barrel for humor which totally shows that he has nothing actually funny to say - sexual humor is always good for a bit of laughter but it isn’t that funny when it’s so crass. Steve Martin showed more class with his material and the music was fantastic - complete with the best humor of the show. The fiddler and banjo player were fenomenol as was Steve on the banjo. This was the good redeeming part of the gig but didn’t last that long. Disappointed that Steve still swooped as did Martin to just degrading eachother as a grove to be funny...was not that funny. A little of that goes a long way - so the entire show being encased in it was a little tiring. The funniest segments of the show were the video clips they showed before the stars came on stage and the three audience participants having to come on stage and do the three amigos dance. . with the jacked high ticket prices felt very much like we were just all being required to pay for the history of these two making us laugh. I think they have enough money - what they really need is a more honest connection with the audience and have some fun with some new humor. I would imagine that Steve and Martin don’t feel very good about their performance either.

Martin & Short deliver

Wonderful show! Super talented comedians! Oodles of laughs! Very fun show!

Atypical

Comedy is always a matter of taste. Martin & Short demonstrated the really funny (bits with Short as a ventriloquist dummy and contorting his face as a person with too much plastic surgery, Martin with the Steep Canyon Rangers and the 3 Amigos) and the tasteless (Short stripping with the pianist) and banal (the collection of movie and video clips as the introduction, the closing song about contractual obligations). In point of fact, the show was much better than expected. The banter between them was generally excellent and the insertion of the Rangers broke the talk only possibilities.

Fun evening

Was a great date night for my wife and I. Both of these guys are fun and together they were great. ;-) Fun to think about all the great, silly, zany characters and slapstick comedy they represent.

Multi talented professional comedic act

Steve Martin and Martin short are an amazing twosome. They play off each other beautifully. I didn’t know what a great banjo and pianist Steve Martin is and what a great singer Martin short is. Outstanding! I wish everyone I knew was there to enjoy it and laugh!

A must see!

Hilarious, great entertainment from these 2 legends

Excellent Show

It was so nice to go to a performance and laugh the entire time. Everyone in our group loved the show. It ran 1 hr. and 50 minutes and it was non-stop fun. I highly recommend this show, it worth the money.
