Review by Hegezip

I have been a fan since 2014. Went to see him twice live in Montreal. This guy has literally opened up new comical territories for me and as an immigrant married to another immigrant I have always related to his skits to the highest point.

But this was NOT it. This felt like some random guy had 2 shots of espresso then swallowed a whole tab of antidepressants and tried to impersonate the "real" Sebastian Maniscalco.

It was so painful to watch I actually felt bad for the guy. I still respect him so much for everything he's done. But after this one there's gotta be someone around him to tell him that this is so cringe he's going to need to take some time to reflect, enjoy some family time and come back stronger than ever with FRESH content and his usual energy.

I legit thought that his lack of enthusiasm was part of a skit and then he was going to "wake up" and make a joke about himself or something. But realizing that this was really "him", I actually got sad.

They say you should never meet your heros. But I'd like to meet him one day and tell him it's not over, there's still time for him to redeem himself after this Mascarado.
