This woman is a comedy genius. What an absolute pleasure to watch

[@daveeddy2402]

I have so much respect for people who can adlib that way.

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

I can't shake the suspicion that monkey is really talking for himself and just being funny by pretending to be a puppet...

[@theghoulyard]

Agreed. She does a phenomenal job!

[@zoltankaparthy9095]

And Nina's the puppet??!! A philosophical grey area.

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

@@zoltankaparthy9095 Not that Nina's the puppet at all! Think you know what I mean, grey brain.

Monkey is the manifestation of her inner monologue. Her performance is so responsive it really seems monkey has a mind of its own.

[@mplsmark222]

She uses an number of techniques masterfully. Like when she laughs at something Monkey has said. Im curious to know where Monkey, the puppet came from. How many of them does she have? Nina is kind of rough on him, like when she plays a steel string guitar with his face, or has him drink water and cleans up the spilled water with his face. Jeff Dunham is a very successful ventriloquist, but his act looks completely scripted, Nina looks like she is mostly improvised.

[@nirvana2115]

I agree, she's the best ventriloquist I've ever seen.

[@mplsmark222]

Nina is brilliant. I’ve never seen someone that can react so fast, be funny all while doing ventriloquism. Her brain must be wired differently than “normal”.

[@nowthenzen]

agree, if more normal people had monkey puppets there would be less war.

[@edwinov]

I missed the 'be funny' part. She's NOT funny. EVER.

[@linlasj]

She is superfast!

[@MatSmithLondon]

I don't know how Nina manages to bring such a sense of chaos to her conversations, interrupting, changing subjects, as if she's completely out of control - yet clearly the opposite it true as it takes so much concentration and precision to speak from two mouths at the same time. I'm really enjoying watching Nina's videos. Can't wait to see her live some day.

[@rango_unchained]

Oh my gosh, I can't get enough of Nina and Monkey. So funny, every time.

Just saw Nina the other day on Valentines Day at the Soho Playhouse in New York City and it was fantastic. Seeing her in person was 1,000 times better than on a video. The audience never stopped laughing hysterically. I even got up on the stage to be interviewed by Monkey during the Speed dating with Monkey segment!! I really recommend everyone see Nina live if they get a chance!!

Amazing brain power to think on the fly and switch between two voices so quickly like that

"What's the word I'm looking for?" "I don't know. I'm waiting for you to think of it." Brilliant (and it went right over their fluffy heads). Nina Conti is a genius. And hot.

[@user-zs2sc7kr8e]

She is the funniest and most intelligent ventriloquist I have seen. She takes ventriloquism and turns that into philosophy.

[@daveeddy2402]

That's a brilliant take... ventriloquism can be weird, stale, frightening art form and Nina has moved it forward 100 years

[@jimmccork]

She’s such a funny lady - some of the sketches with guests from the audience and making them wear masks are absolutely hilarious.

[@127Foxtrot]

She is extremely talented, truly gifted !

Five minutes with Monk & Nina makes 4 thick-skinned TV personalities to need therapy.

[@dominickeefe2454]

Maybe this is the way ahead. Catharsis through a glove puppet relationship. It's genius - the artist expresses their insecurities and split personality freely by talking to the puppet. She seems to surprise herself some times. This may be a new type of therapy.

Thanks. I needed. The laugh. From. Evansville Indiana. USA.

[@paulrandig]

It reminds me of playing a baroque fugue on the piano. You have to split your mind and follow each melody line seperately while they still have to fit together. It is a kind of hovering feeling to let each split part of you go on for itself and reduce your coordinating part to a minimum, to an almost invisible overseer that only sometimes gently nudges one of the participants back into track. As soon as you concentrate too hard on this superiour part of your mind, the whole system may collapse. Nina does this on a very advaced level, because she lets the two parts of her react in real time to unforseeable events of the real world, while letting each part stay fully in character. At the same time the coordinating part of her watches all that from the outside and suggests jokes on the meta plain to her two characters.

[@braincraven]

The truth is within Monkey. It's kinda sad and beautiful all at once.

[@claudius999]

I've been to one of her shows couple of years ago, she was dressed like Monkey,in full costume of summer day for half of hour. At the end of the show she asked us from audience, in a gesture to help , to carry her outside the stage. I remained intentionally at the end just to give her a kiss on the cheek.She was sweaty after so much work in that hot monkey costume, still I would kiss her 1000 times more today for the woman she is.
