stand-up comedian Jackie Mason performs to a packed house at London's
Royal Opera House in this film. Known for dishing out political satire
and keen observations on life's absurdities, Mason garnered national
recognition with appearances on "The Steve Allen Show" and "The Ed
Sullivan Show." In addition to his stand-up routine, Mason has had a
successful one-man Broadway show, "The World According to Me," and has
authored several books.
If you are a long time fan, as am I, you will enjoy seeing Jackie performing in this historic site. Jackie even leads us on an abbreviated tour of the venue as part of the bonus material. The concert material is new but all the familiar patterns of delivery remain unchanged. "Hey mister! What do you think?...I mean for a man in your condition..." He does miss a beat or two... It is, nevertheless, satisfying to watch a familiar old "friend" who has entertained us for decades basking in the twilight of his career and clearly wowing the audience.
