      Two Sunday matinees ago I took a young teenage friend of mine to see this play...she hadn't experienced theater like this...she just loved it! Seated so close to the stage we felt like were apart of the act. The interaction with the cast was so much fun. Neil A. Casey (Tony) kept us in stitches, all the performers were very entertaining. This was my third time seeing Shear Madness but it won't be my last. Thanks for thirty years of suspense and laughter! Collapse

      My husband and I took his parents to see a 6:00 show on 6/27. They're big theater buffs and we all had a great time. It was great entertainment and offered a bunch of laughs. I wouldn't want to take young kids to see it. Since some of it is improv, some jokes or innuendos can get a little hot. I'd say 13+ anyway since it is a cabaret style theater (bar). Collapse
