The Hook — Local services in Atlantic City

Went to the show this past weekend (June 2025). It was a blast. Was the highlight of the trip to be honest and we stayed for 5 days and did as much as we could. Loved the host, he just hit my type of humor dead on. The juggling act was my favorite part of the show. It is a tad bit on the raunchy side, there is some contact with front row guests, nothing that you wouldn't expect with this type of show.

For anyone reading this to get honest feedback about the show, go -- it's funny -- the acts are impressive, it's engaging. I'd go see it again and I don't say that often.

Also my recommendations below absolutely in no way take away from the show, I just like to give good feedback when I do leave it with honest improvements or just options from the crowd that might help improve or drive revenue for them. Because I want them to do good because it was a good show and to keep performing it so next time I come back with friends we can go

Recommendations:

Allow front row people to opt out of any physical contact at time of ticket purchases and ensure that is identified on every show. But don't eliminate it, just make sure people are more aware of it being a possibility for safety reasons.

The front row by the oval portion needs to be a foot back based on one of the proximity of the acts (roller) and allowing more freedom for the stagehands to be more efficient in the gathering/clean up needs.

Offer a free smaller (1/2 of normal size) popcorn portion with a purchase of a beverage.

Figure out some way to have a wait staff/tablet option for drink orders without impacting view of show, I would have spent another 25-30$ if I didn't have to get up and worry about hitting a table behind me or something getting up during. But I also understand not wanting to take away from the show.

Chairs in front row should be the most comfortable in the house just based on purchase price. Wasn't uncomfortable perse, but wasn't comfortable either and tbh was jealous of a chair I saw in the 2nd row. In a bigger guy too fwiw, so that recommendation is more siloed - but let's be honest, most of us are big now anyways :D

Glitter poppers, streamers or something you can give the crowd to participate in the show that are in the first row given out after seating ends I think would be a good addition. Something that you incorporate a keyword or something the crowd knows to pop at a specific time...

✨️Dinner......AMAZING! Get the chicken parm or pizza! Yum! ✨️Show.... SPECTACULAR! ✨️Hosts, servers.... truly go out of the way to make you comfortable, happy & having a blast!!!

But..... and this changes my view on everything.... watching Management, walk around like everyone else who works there beneath them, their minions was hard to watch. Hearing them talk, scream and belittling the staff was hard to stomach! This happy go lucky staff, ready to please & make your evening special, faces turn awkward after guessing upper, stuck up, overly dramatic Management talks down to them, in the OPEN is just disturbing. Hard to enjoy an amazing, beautifully liberal, hysterical, full of surprises show.....when your attention is brought down by such disgusting behavior. Wanting to go defend these wonderful people. Not how I imagined such a liberal environment to be managed and run. Some of the things said are too unspeakable to write or call a dog. Someone needs to stop that, before this great addition is lost from AC! The 2 hosts I'd love to thank for trying to make many of us continue to enjoy the moment as we watched they got that despicable behavior the most. And tried to talk us into returning this weekend with a large group. Sadly that embarrassing show of management, ruined the show and chances of returning. The tall, overly eccentric, flashy dressed gay gentleman, I'd like to point out is a disgrace to his community, I've never heard such raunchy, mean behavior to people that you are supposed to be an example for, not a dictator to. Such of fun & awesome atmosphere,...

Ok not exactly sure where to start. I saw this show advertised on FB. By the videos posted from the promoter I thought this was going to be a smaller scale version of a cirque show. It was not. It’s currently showing at Caesar’s Hotel and Casino. They have a bar on premise which was good. The service was a bit slow until a second bartender came to help then it went quicker. When the show started the MC came onto the stage. He was dressed I would say more like a ringmaster. The show was kind of cheesy. They had a few different acts perform, a pole dancer, a magician, a contortionist, jugglers and an aerialist. During the juggling performance the two men disrobed down to their jockstraps while continually juggling and then managed to dress again, all while never missing a beat. I do have to say impressive. The pole dancer, well incredible upper body strength and swung around that pole like the professional that she was. The contortionist was creepy, but good and the aerialist was impressive. Then the ring master did a quick change into a g string thing and the “captain” came out topless with pasties on, and a G string. It was a very weird experience. Something I was not expecting, but maybe I didn’t read the description correctly, I felt like I was in the twilight zone. Definitely not for...
