About the Show

A legendary trio of comedians reunite, sharing wit, humor, and timeless stage magic.

The Last Laugh brings together three iconic comedians—Tommy Cooper, Eric Morecambe, and Bob Monkhouse—for an imagined meeting filled with humor, charm, and nostalgia. Cooper, known for his magic tricks that hilariously failed, Morecambe, one half of the beloved double act that inspired The Play What I Wrote, and Monkhouse, a master of quick-witted hosting, share the stage in a tribute to their enduring comedic legacy. Through their signature styles, the play explores their impact on entertainment, blending laughter with a glimpse into the personalities behind the performances.

Critic Reviews (2)

"Watching these three comics in a musical number suggests that The Last Laugh might be better, if not as a full-fledged musical, as a show that embraces structural whimsy and unpredictability in the way its subjects did in their acts"
