About the Show
The Classic TV Game Show without the TV.
Fresh from its hit run in Los Angeles, What’s My Line? – Live On Stage follows the classic TV game show that ran for over 25 years. Four celebrity panelists try to deduce the occupation of a guest, asking only yes-or-no questions. This unscripted show features real people with real jobs and real celebrity “Mystery Guests”. Hosted by J. Keith van Straaten with live music and plenty of surprises, you’ll never know who you’ll see in this spontaneous live staging of a game show classic.

Reviews
"Wry, unexpected and hilarious."
- Time Out New York
"Just tremendous! Not only is it like the original [TV show, and] it evokes that spirit, but it's gone beyond. It's today, it's now, it's a whole lot of fun. ... A very entertaining evening."
--WCBS-AM 4/4/08
"An unforced good time... an agreeable, often surprising evening of sophisticated silliness... a refreshing blast from a more genteel past. It is an idea whose time, strangely enough, has come."
- Backstage.com
"Wildly Successful! New Yorkers know a good thing (and sophisticated wit) when they see it. Bravo! "
- PaperMag.com
"Amazingly, this doesn’t parody the original show but offers a replica sample from a vintage pop culture, with the host and guests formally dressed as though for church. The show provides a window onto the decorum and spontaneous, champagne wit of a bygone era. Van Straaten has been doing this kind of game-show hosting on the comedy circuit for years now, and through those years I’ve been blasting theater that tries to ape TV. This is one example, however, where I have to eat my words... GO... Take your out-of-town guests"
- LA Weekly
"…Witty... Charming... Stays true to its TV show roots...stemming from nostalgia for a time when reality show contestants didn't have to eat squid guts to impress us. "
- L.A. Times
