Pros: Some Funny Parts
Cons: Not as good as TV performances

I have seen Amazing Jonathan several times on TV so I was excited to learn that he was still in Las Vegas. I really built him up to the rest of the group, so I was was disappointed when it wasn't as good as I expected. We saw his first weekend at the Sahara. I had read that his show sells out so bought tickets before we left home, but there were a lot of empty seats. There is no longer an opening act. They spend a lot of time in the beginning with the audience being shown on a screen with the camera focusing on a person and they put up a rude caption. It was pretty funny, but I was terrified it would land on me! The first part of Jonathan's show where he brings up the "volunteer" was hysterical. But once the guy sat down and the blonde ditz was more a part of the show, I was ready for it to be over. It was too bad that he didn't start with her (or better yet, eliminate her totally) and end with people laughing rather than wanting it over.
