I've never caught Serveur Amusant, but does anyone else see Joey Fatone holding the guitar?

Serveur Amusant is our favorite WS show, too! I know I could never balance on even one chair lol so kudos to the performers in Canada, but I don't think they'll be able to take first place in my book We'll definitely try to catch them in November though (if they're still there...........)

I watched this new show via Periscope. It's horrible. No doubt it will be gone quickly.

No doubt it will be gone quickly.

Last "show" is September 3.

We watched this on Monday midday. I am not sure if they did a shortened version because it was so hot but it wasn't the normal show and both actors/performers seemed out of sorts. Everyone seemed a little confused when it ended. Probably half as long as normal. I can't imagine trying to climb and balance in that heat so I am thinking that's what it was.

Well then that's getting marked off the list unless we hop over from MK just for that show on that day.

Yes,they often do shortened shows in the Summer due to heat.

The new show in Canada is unbelievably lame.

Ditto - we watched it this past week and the acrobatic guy didn't do all his normal stuff. But the waiter guy was a lot funnier than in the past - added about three minutes of new material from last year.

A poor man's serveur amusant, indeed. Let's compare the above to this:

or this:

Can we just bring back Off Kilter already?

Thinking back a few years, was there an earlier version of Server Amusant in which instead of being dressed like a waiter, he was dressed like a regular guest, waiting in the crowd, and got "chosen" to participate? I definitely remember something like that at Epcot, where an apparently regular guest suddenly begins to do balancing tricks. (*not* thinking of the Indy Stunt Show - this was definitely a guy who did hand balancing)

Yes, he was always dressed like a tourist in cargo shorts and a baseball cap. The first time we saw it, he did a good job being a tourist. It was very amusing.
