Timeless Manic Hysteria
13 August 2000 | by (Perth, Western Australia) – See all my reviews

An extremely enjoyable fast-paced barrage of Robin Williams live in San Francisco. He is amazing to watch as he bounces of audience members and his own manic genius. Highly recommended for those who have only seen Robin in the movies. It is impossible not to laugh out loud, as funny as Eddie Murphy's Delirious. The only drawback is the 'encore' and the ending which incorporate one of his SNL characters. Nevertheless it is well worth watching.
