Review of the Reality Tour
In return for two comp tickets, I was asked by Kenny Kramer to review his new Reality Tour in NYC. I am a very big fan of the show, but cannot consider myself a fanatic of the show. That said, the Reality Tour is probably unlike any other �tour� you�ve experienced before. Kenny and his frantic associate Bobby Allen Brooks conspire to deliver nearly three hours of Seinfeld facts in standup.
The Tour begins in an Off Off Broadway Theater and at first appears corny, to those who arrive early, with piano and vocal accompaniment offered by Bobby Allen Brooks. The duo lay the ground work for the roots of the Seinfeld show with a landscape of comedic careers in New York. Their slightly off-beat style combines with important facts which neatly brings the audience to how/why the show got it�s start. Their delivery is a delight to observe because you�ve never got a clue what�s coming next.
The Reality Tour itself was done in a modern van/bus equipped with television monitor to enhance their �standup� routine going on in the aisle by Kenny and Bobby. Both have obviously done a great deal of work and arm twisting to bring the finished product to market; they bring the stories we�ve all seen to life. The pair have an engaging seemingly ad-lib banter that is well organized and thoroughly entertaining. Seinfeld enthusiast will enjoy the challenge of trying to answer queries from Kenny Kramer during the bus tour. All Seinfeld fans will enjoy checking out: Tom�s Restaurant, the fruit stand where Kramer was barred for squeezing the fruit, the movie theater where George called out for Jerry/Elaine/Kramer, the bakery which produce the yet unfinished donut, the Soup Guy, the site of the hospital where Jr. Mint wound up in an unfortunate patient�s abdominal cavity.
The Reality Tour winds up back at Manhattan Plaza where the audience is treated to pizza/soda and a blooper/Wrap tape of the show. To the Seinfeld enthusiast, it should be noted that both Kenny Kramer and Bobby Allen Brooks are always nearby and ready to take questions about the show.
Although I�m not a native New Yorker I very much enjoyed the well thought out organization and changing tempo of the Reality tour. It�s not for people who don�t know the show, but it is for real. ______________________________________________________________ _________________________________________ Jive Version
