Just got back from All In. Unfortunately, I found the show pretty disappointing. Maybe my expectations weren't set properly because the show is primarily just the four stars (Mulaney, Armisen, Kind, Goldsberry) sitting in chairs, reading from the script in their hands.
There are several different stories, but it felt a bit like watching SNL for me. There's a bit of comedy in each one, but it just plods on with the same joke ad nauseam until most of the audience is no longer laughing.
Kind of a harsh review, but it was an expensive ticket so I expected more.
Edit: I didn't know much about Simon Rich before the show, but (almost?) everything from the show is already published. Save your money, and just read it at home:
Here's the list of works (in I think the right order):
- Opening Monologue (maybe original?)
- Pirates
- The Big Nap
- Case study (about elephant man), also in the book
- New Client
- History Report
