2 There are better shows to see,(much better)  Review by: jb, Sep 5, 2011
This was by far the worst show in NYC I have ever seen. I read the reviews on this play from this site and I really wanted to like this show. Unfortunately it was impossible! There were 38 people in the audience (yes,just 38)and I cannot imagine they found Joyce Dewitt or her sidekick Paco funny either. The script was just plain bad and so was Joyce Dewitt. Shamelessly, I admit we walked out at the 30 minute mark.

Joyce DeWitt is very pleasant in the role. The funny is fun and funny. The guy playing her assistant is good, as well. Quaint theater.

4 Not funny, not worth the time  Review by: amsbroadway, Mar 29, 2011
Show was very minimal. Idea was good but script was so bad that I couldn't really laugh even though I wanted to. Eve Plumb was out of her element - this was definitely not a Brady moment - she was very stiff and even her funny lines were hard to laugh at. Not worth the less than 90 minutes the show ran.

6 Great night at the theater  Review by: chirpingchicken, Mar 4, 2011
We had a blast at this show! Good acting performances, really funny jokes, and they pulled my (very embarrassed) husband up on stage. What a hoot!

7 It was OK funny here and there  Review by: CrisNJ, Feb 21, 2011
Fun to see Jan Brady on stage again... Paco was entertaining. It was Just OK for me... I did laugh here and there but be prepared for some cheesy lines and parts. They use the audience members so be prepared. We got discount tickets. I would not pay full price to see this show.

8 Not worth it  Review by: disappointed, Feb 6, 2011
I just came back from the show. The acting was fine, but I found it to be barely entertaining, mostly corny and not worth the ticket price at all. I've been to to other off broadway shows and found this to be very amateur with a pretty dull plot. Go if you get a ticket $10 or less, otherwise don't bother.

9 Miss Abigail.... light and fun...if you can see  Review by: Diract 66, Jan 21, 2011
This show was a lot of fun and got better as it went along. The theatre is very small and the further back you go the closer to the ceiling your head gets. The view is cut off by the people in front of you in the first three rows. Good performances but the essence of the show depends a lot on the audience as there is a lot of audience participation. I am sure the two actors will get better with each show at handling this, but they were a ... read more

10   Review by: The Man, Nov 15, 2010
I didn't like it. It was too silly and seemed to get worse as the show went on. The play lasted just over an hour and I was glad it was over. Eve Plumb was nice and signed autographs after the show. It wasn't her fault that the material was so bad.

Miss Abigail’s Guide was a Blast! Our seats were fantastic, my sister and I really felt like we were a part of the show. Eve Plumb was so funny! we both used to watch The Brady Bunch all the time as kids, so it was thrilling to see her in person. We LOVE Paco! He was so cute and reminded us of Wilmer Valderrama. Seeing this show is an absolute must!

12 A Delightful Off- Broadway Show  Review by: Sharon, Oct 15, 2010
As part of our annual girl's trip to New York in October, the 4 of us saw Miss Abigail's Guide to Dating last Sunday for the matinee performance. It was just delightful! Miss Abigail was a blend of Dr. Ruth and Miss Manners. The theater was very small and intimate and every employee we came in contact with was friendly and warm. There was a lot of interaction between the audience and the performers which was a lot of fun. There were only 2 ... read more
