The Backline Comedy Theatre — Restaurant in Omaha

Good show, talented folks for sure. But forcing the gender neutral bathroom thing on everyone … not so cool. I noticed a lot of women waiting to see if any men were in the restroom before they would Go in. I mean they have two restrooms.

Why not make one gender neutral and have at least a women’s restroom. It was very apparent that most women would have preferred a restroom for just women.

Like I said great talent fun show but please consider changing this.

Well thanks for considering this change, because of two guys named “Clay”. I assure you this is not a political stance and just an observation made when I was there. The two women I came with complained to me about it.

Unfortunately the “where we poop and pee was never confusing until recent years and Trump certainly didn't convince me to write this review.

As a man I appreciate a good urinal and men’s/womens restrooms seemed to be previously designed to meet each “sex”/ Genders genitalia needs.

Ya know like trash cans in the women’s restrooms in the stalls to dispose of feminine hygiene products and urinals for the fellas as a lot of still don’t sit down to pee.

Taking place on a stage decorated by Dracula, watch the same 20 people tell the same jokes they’ve LITERALLY been telling badly for the last 5 years. Admission might be free, but when it’s over, you will have lost an irretrievable part of your soul. Have you ever contemplated suicide? You will at the Backline. Unless you pay for improv classes from the woman who once paid formUCB classes during her summer in LA, be prepared to wait 3 hours to go on and expect the emcee to interrupt your set and yell at you when you hit on his girlfriend. If you’re looking for something else to do on a Wednesday night, you could always jump off the Woodmen of the World building; it only takes 3 seconds to hit the pavement and the pain is over - which is so much better than 3 hours of suffering through what appears to be a vampire cult’s serious attempt at...

What can I say? Comedy is subjective. I saw that there are some negative reviews which I would totally disagree with. I’ve been going to the back line for the last few months and also you sometimes see the same comics occasionally they appreciate you being there nonetheless.

It’s really nice that they remember who you are from week to week and greet you accordingly.

The back line is here to help new performers and veterans alike. A place for them to hone their talent and try out new jokes.

I will continue going to the back line and I will continue telling my friends that they need to go there too.

They offer different classes for people that want to try improv or stand-up. Which is something I might try...
