NYC THEATER REVIEW: CARNIVAL KNOWLEDGE * * * 1/2 (3 and a half stars out of 4).
External link: http://www.carnivalknowledge.com/
This delightful show classes up the old-time carnival side show with sophisticated banter and a behind the scenes look at how a lot of the tricks are done. It reminds me a lot of the first time I ever saw Penn and Teller, which I still think was one of the best shows I ever saw. This was not as good as that show was, but it's very good, and it's definitely in the same spirit. It is very suitable for children, but there are a lot of risque jokes, deliberately designed to go over their heads.
This is The Official Record.
