Editorial Review for Comedy Connection – by Citysearch Staff
The Scene
Located on the second floor of the Faneuil Hall Marketplace, the Connection occupies a huge, rectangular space (there's waitress service for drinks and appetizers) and feels more like a fancy high-school auditorium than a nightclub. Though the Connection draws its share of locals, it also loops in the tourist crowd by booking familiar faces from television sitcoms and movies.

I went to see Robert Kelly last night at The Comedy Connection at The Wilbur Theater. I thought they must have turned it into a club but it is just another theater and not the way to enjoy Kelly . I have loved him for years and seen him for many years. I use to see him with Dane Cook at The Vault years ago and have enjoyed him every time. He was great everytime but not last night. He was supper but the place isn't right for comedy. I will try again but I don't thinks so.

I went to Comedy Connection last night and was very frustrated when the heat was obviously not turned on inside. The temperature outside was below zero with the wind chill factor and the club itself was frigid. There was a very small audience there, many of whom kept on their winter jackets throughout the show. Even some of the comics performed in their coats. At a place where you need to buy at least two expensive drinks to stay, I would have expected at the very least a comfortable sitting atmosphere. Furthermore, the comics themselves were mostly mediocre and our waitress' demeanor matched the temperature perfectly. An underwhelming experience.
Pros: Location
Cons: Very cold, drink requirements
